Yes they pop up from on ebay regularly, ive been trying to get all the Cesar Romero episodes for a while now (no none for sale [Big Grin] ), I have however never seen the Batman feature for sale in 16mm.

yes, they pop up often on ebay, but they sales for big $$$$
I have also few episodes and the feature in LPP.
Recently I got also an LPP german dubbed print of the feature.
I´m thinking about to sell my original english print, but did not decide if I sell it or not.
Robert, did you see the sale list on the 35mm Forum, Drew have a 35mm episode for sale ($2100), it is a good price because 35mm prints of TV shows are extremely rare.

Thanks for the tips chaps, it's one of those titles that you've always wanted to collect as it holds a lot of childhood memories for me.

I can only guess because these turn up quiet often for sale that they are very popular tv show and where printed quiet a lot for demand for re-runs over the years.

I remember here in the UK when there was a re-run of the series shown on ITV Thames on week days just before the 5.45 news back in 1977-78. And again back in the early 80s on Channel 4.

As with most people i have not really had dedicated time to search out for these or thought they would be a worthy contender for my film library.

With most 35mm prints that are offered unfortunately they all suffer from fade. Which is the case with most TV prints on 35mm. I have quiet a lot of the Avengers that came from Pinewood which have the same problem which is a shame. Thou quality and detail cannot be matched with a 16mm reduction print which are generally about.

In early 70´s I watched the Batman feature every time as they was a show in our local theater. I´m a big Superman and Batman fan and this time it was the best movie for me. And this was the 16mm print that made me most happy. Robert I let you know if I decide to sell my english original print. Maybe it is enough to keep one print because the condition and color is the same on both prints but this time I watch more movies in original english language.
So you have to wait.
But here are some screenshots I made from the last screening of the english version:

By the way folks, the german lab released on Super 8 the original trailer. It is made from a german version but it is the same like the US version, so it is easy to re-record it. You can ask CHC.

Those shots of Batman feature are really sweet...looks good!

I have a copy of the movie on VHS tape. It's a fun movie.
