I've been interested in Batman collectables my whole adult life and a few have always remained a mystery.
The Marx Batman carded figure is such a one, an unusual set.
First up, the bat mask looks more like a salad bowl than his classic cowl. I guess the shape is to fit the swimming goggles over his face.
But then, yes, there's the whole underwater theme, what with those air tanks, which look like something from another set. Batman wasn't well known for his swimming, so it's an odd theme for a toy contemporary with the Adam West TV series.
Did Marx rush to get this out?
Anyone got one?
