Superhero Museum Collection Auction: Part 2

Superhero Museum Collection Auction

That's me touching the Robin costume at the Superhero Museum Collection Auction.

I wanted to buy it but it was a little to pricey for me.

Here is a story, with video, about why it is being auctioned HERE.

Super Hero Museum 14

This is the last post on my families adventure to the Heroes Museum in Indianapolis.

This is all the odds and ends photos that haven't made it on any other posts of the trip.

The top picture is the tires off the Tumbler from Batman Begins.


An original album which contain the classic Batman theme song on it.
I have the mp3's of this album (Not CD kids it is a long playing record, LP, that played at a 33 1/3 speed.) but I don't have the original.


A nice classic Batmobile pedal car.

I had this model at one time.


This is some of the actual film from the movie Batman Begins.

I have a few more blurry pictures but this is pretty much it.

I had planned on returning at a future date and taking more pictures but sadly the museum closed so I am glad I took these on this trip.

I enjoyed the day with my family and thank you for taking the trip again with me.

Super Hero Museum 13

This is not the actual Batmoblie from the movie but a replica of it.

I think the owner said that it was built on a Corvette frame and was street legal.

Even the cowling slid forward.

It shot fire out the back too.

The owner said the fire marshal made him remove all flammable liquids and igniter in order to display it.



The shields function worked to fast for me to catch it on camera. Sorry.

Super Hero Museum 12

Christian Bales shirt, tie and other props from Batman Begins.

This is a shirt and tie that George Reeves wore in the TV Superman series.

Super Hero Museum 11

The Batboat!

Here are Joel, Megan and I with the Batboat.

I finally got the kids out of the way and now its just me and the Batboat!

Joel got me out of the way and now it is Joel and the Batboat.

Here are some interiors of the Batboat.






This was just a replica of the real Batboat but still pretty sweet.

Super Hero Museum 10

What are we gathered around?

One of the coolest things in the museum.

An original Robin costume for the 1960's Batman Television series.

It is surrounded by autographed pictures people who appeared in the series and it even had Robins gloves.

Here is Levi, my Robin, standing next to the costume.

I don't think it would fit him.

Close up.

I didn't get a close up of the gloves but I fully intended to go back and try to get better pictures.

There are other big items left to show you in the museum but this was by far my favorite item.

Super Hero Museum 9

A few more toys, puzzles and games.

Super Hero Museum 8

Costumes from Batman Begins including a costume for a penguin.

One of the disks that launched from the Batmobile in Batman Returns.

Super Hero Museum 7

Where did he get all these wonderful toys?

A Batman lunch box with a thermos!



Batman on his bike, buttons and games.

Do any of you have any of this stuff?

Super Hero Museum 6

What else was there to see?
An original drawing of Batman and Robin by Bob Kane.



Also more 60's Batman goodies, like a Batdirectory.

It must have been different than the phone book because Batman thought it vital to have both books in the Batcave.

Super Hero Museum 5

After traveling through a sea of Superman we entered into the darker section, the Gotham section of the collection.

My wife ran ahead to capture my face as I beheld Bat-things I had only seen on television before.

Yeah, I just stood there and soaked it in for a minute.


What did I see? Should I display it all now for you?

Nah , I will just tell you about it.

There were a lot of things there that I have in my Bat-collection. Enough so that Elaine said "You know you have a pretty good collection.".

I now have a few of my Bat-goodies on display in our home in what we call the BATROOM. She even told me that I need a new shelf to display some more of my collection. I love that woman.

But what did he have that I didn't have?

What did this man who owned at least one Superman suit from every Superman have from Batman?

I will show you pictures and here is the first item for your Bat-fix.

A telephone book for Gotham city from the Adam West series.

Wouldn't you love to have this on the table next to the phone?
Whose numbers were in it? I don't know because I wasn't allowed to touch it.

What other Bat-morabilia lies ahead?

All I can say is tune in tomorrow

Super Hero Museum 4

Here I am soaking in all the little Superman things this man owned.


Me and the kids looking and more of the memorabilia. (Thank you spell check for that one)


Shelves and shelves of Superman toys, books, stickers, ads, cups, comics, and coloring books.
If it had an "S" on it and was blue he had it.

I can't remember what we were looking at in particular but It must have been something I had at some time.
