1966 Batmobile

Batman was showing up everywhere in 1966, including some rather offbeat items. In this case, a drawing of Batman, Robin, and the Batmobile was used on a bath towel. The Batmobile is an odd combination of the TV series car (beacon, antlers, rear deck, & exhaust nozzle) and the regular '60s comic book car (nose, front fenders, windshield, & spotlights). The sides of the car don't really match either one, though, with highly sculpted doors melding into ribbed fins.
