Batman Batmobiles from Argentina (Galpruz, 1956-57)....

Description

Batman Batmobiles from Argentina (Galpruz, 1956-57). These impossibly rare Batmobiles originate from Argentina and are featured in the 1956/57 Galpruz catalog. Not much is known about the origins of these vintage pieces based on the 1943 Cadillac Series 61. They are identical except for the color and have bat stickers on the doors that say "Batiauto". Each has a black fin on the back and a black plastic Batman face on front. The free wheels have metal hubs while the tires are rubber and the car bodies are plastic. Both are in excellent unused condition. The original boxes are included and are all brown cardboard except for the end stickers with stamps for Azul (blue) and Nego (black). Also included is a photocopy of the original catalog page advertising the cars.
