Batman Bike Ornaments - US and UK Versions (Empire / Selcol, 1966)....

Description

Batman Bike Ornaments - US and UK Versions (Empire / Selcol, 1966). This lot of 2 bike ornaments were produced in 1966 and share the same blow-mold design with a clip to attach them to a bicycle's handlebars. The "Bicycle Ornament" US version was made by Empire and is dark blue and gray while the English version was called the "Bicycle Mascot" and made by Selcol and is light blue and silver.

More Information: The yellow-carded US version has some small creases but no tears and retains its vivid colors. The ornament is still attached with the original elastics and is unbroken with only some paint loss to the front. The English version is on a thinner paper card that has some warping but no tears. The elastics have broken, so the ornament is no longer attached and the stem holding the spring to the red clip on bottom has broken. The paint is in excellent condition with no wear.
