This is one of the cool things I found recently and wanted to share. Recently I stumbled upon Adam West .Com It’s the official website of Adam West (The original Batman of course) and he sells all kinds of cool stuff on the site. Some of which he personalizes.
Lately, I have been on a Batman binge. I re-watched all of the original series episodes on TV, then the 90s movies, and I am about to go through the Christian Bale films. I guess you can say I’m getting ready for the new Batman Vs. Superman film. I’m hyped to say the least. I’m not even angry about Ben Affleck. Shit, it’s even got Wonder Woman. I’m into it.
I was driving down the road a month ago and looked to my right and out of the corner of my eye I noticed a Bat symbol in the window of the Barrett Jackson Showroom Window. Mind you, it’s not on the street; the building i at least 20-25 feet from the front sidewalk. But I saw what looked like the Batmobile and I had to stop.
It was a Sunday and unfortunately the showroom was closed. The window had a sign that stated this was the original car that George Barris designed and was used in the show. I was hyped!
So that evening I went online was was reading more about George Barris’ cars. In addition to all the amazing cars he designed I knew he designed both cars from The Munsters (Munsters Koach and Drag-U-La) but he also worked on the cars for Knightrider and Dukes of Hazzard. Plus he designed that silly ride in Supervan.
While stumbling around online I found West’s website and ended up purchasing is book Back to the Batcave for $35.00 Not to mention, he signs the book! If you click on the picture below it will take you to the link.
Here is my copy signed by Adam West!
There is no way you don’t know someone who would want a book signed by Adam West. Last year he was at The Phoenix film Festival and he was charging $80 for a picture. Totally crazy. But a biography, memoir and episode guide totally rules. The book is really cool I loved it.
Oh and I went back to Barrett Jackson when they were open while I was on Christmas break. I swear I didn’t plan wearing this shit it just happened. As i said, I am on a Batman kick.
