Important Added Info: Perhaps it is because this movie was made during World War II, or perhaps it is because it received a major re-release in 1954, but original 1943 movie paper from this very first Batman movie has always been incredibly rare. By contrast, there is a far greater amount of movie paper from the 1949 sequel to this movie, "The New Adventures of Batman and Robin", and the two Superman movies from 1948 and 1950. Offered here is an extremely rare 1943 original title card! Condition: fair to good. There are many creases, smudges, and faint tape stains around the edges, with pinholes in the corners and a few tiny tears. There is surface paper loss in the middle of the right border, slightly extending into the image. There are smudges and dot stains scattered in the image. Obviously, this great card has real defects, but many of them are in the borders, and this very rare card obviously could be professionally restored. Learn More about condition grades
