I know exactly how you felt and as a very young child. I built a bat cave in my backyard or what I thought was a bat cave and dreamt about one day becoming Batman.

That is what I was about to type. I am tearing up. And the look on Adam's face. I know he is very honored to see this collection. I was born in 1965. WOW!!! Just recently I was able to find Batman TV series on one of my cable networks. I was like, "HOLY CRAP!! THERE'S BATMAN!!" Those were the good ole days. I watched Batman and then Dark Shadows before my Mom got home from work every afternoon after school. Thanks Ralph. I know you have put some much time and money into this collection. Thanks for sharing it with so many Batman fans. Adam West was and is THE ONLY BATMAN!!!

The look on his face when he saw the cowl, it was like he saw an old friend after 50 years. he was young again just for a few moments. It must have been worth every second to him. What a gift to give.

I just started the story and I already knew as a Batman fan how highly respected and favored Adam west was and he started it all for Batman hitting the big screen and it warmed my heart after seeing him put it on it was like I didn’t change the channel, and I’m only 18 years of age, when I heard he past, it ate me up, but I’m glad to see that he knew his impact.
@Kit_Bear2 жыл бұрын
@@domlobo8029 It was a surprise to me when he passed away. Here, he appears so healthy and energetic. It really warms my heart that he saw this before he went. Some actors go their entire lives and no-one recognizes them but when Adam performed on screen for 3 years, It followed him and many children for the rest of their lives and made a mark on history. Some say it was cheesy, comical and very low budget but sometimes things work out better that way. It's more fun and entertaining if you don't take it seriously. I think Adam and Burt had a lot of fun making it. That's the magic recipe. Have fun. Don't take it seriously and enjoy yourself. You could see the memories flooding back to him. At that point, you could see, that he was in heaven. R.I.P Adam West

Adam West is the Batman for whom I have the deepest personal affection. I am not a film critic to choose between other actors, I was caught by the luminous magic of a colorful series that immediately connected with my child's heart. I am not at all ashamed of this great Batman. Dozens of actors have come and will come to play Batman, but none will be like his Batman, "The Knight of Light"...

And the collection; oh what a collection. Some I remember having as a kid, especially that lunchbox. I could spend the whole day in that room and get lost in the nostalgia. Thank you for showing this and bringing back the wonderful memories. And RIP to the original Batman himself!

I found out a little fact about Adam West years ago. I saw it on a Game Show. I can't remember the name. I think people were suppose to guess something about a certain person that no one else knew about them. Adam West was on it. He showed that he had a crown (tooth) in the back of him mouth. It had the batman logo. I thought that was the coolest thing. I wish he would have showed it to you, Ralph. Did you know about this?
