Before the cult classic television series of the 1960's, there was another version of the Batman. Played by actor Lewis Wilson, here we see the first ever caped crusader in costume from 1943. Issued in the 1950's, this is still a seventy year old example and one of the only ones we have ever seen in any form. A fantastic image that also pictures the most famous wingman in comic book history, Robin!
