I’ve been looking for an excuse to rearrange the Batman shelves , and this week’s challenge from the League of Extraordinary Bloggers was as good a reason as any. The topic was “Blue” and I immediately focused on Batman in his proper attire, the old blue and grey outfit. A lot of these items are from that glorious year of 1966, when Batman ruled the earth, but there are also items from the 70’s in there as well. I’m always on the lookout for vintage Batman items to add to my collection — having a focus while hunting flea markets and antique malls makes things much more fun and challenging.
I’m not the only one feeling blue this week. Check out Achievements in Gaming, Neato Coolville, Goodwill Hunting 4 Geeks, and more!

September 13, 2013 at 3:25 pmI had that alarm clock! Ah the good ol days of licensed talking alarm clocks. I had a Star Wars one after that with 3P0 and R2 on it.

September 13, 2013 at 3:32 pmSweet collection and display. I can think of a pretty awesome Batman with the blue grey colors that would look sweet on that shelf 😉

Brian says
September 13, 2013 at 5:19 pmCarded of course! That’s why I’m still on the hunt. 😉

September 15, 2013 at 12:57 pmI bet there will be some good batman finds at the Mid Atlantic Nostalgia Con next weekend

September 15, 2013 at 1:51 pmYou know, I’ve thought about going to that show several times but never felt compelled to make the trip. I go to events like that for the “stuff” more so than the celebrities and autographs. Have you been? Is there a large number of vendors?

September 22, 2013 at 11:35 pmNever been, I kinda feel the same way. I was planning on going this year but had to miss it

September 15, 2013 at 6:22 pmThat’s a really cool display Brian! This is usually the style of Batman that I think of first. You have a lot of Batman stuff! I love it. Hope you are doing well.

September 16, 2013 at 2:08 amThanks Mike! I added a little more blue to the collection this morning. Look out for it in a future post. 😉
