Special Feature:
The Batman 1989 Production Still Gallery
Part 9- The Batman

Fellow fan Thorsten Lehmann and I recently acquired a rather large collection of fantastic imagery created during the filming of Batman '89. Much of this imagery consists of still photography created for publicizing the film. These images appeared in trade articles, merchandise like the Topps card set & movie souvenir magazine, and in video packages like the Warner Preview video. Some images from the collection you may have seen before (perhaps not with such clarity), while others appear to be unpublished up to this point. :)

Since there are a LARGE number of images, I thought it best to break them down into related sections. This final chapter features images of our titular hero- The Batman... From publicity stills & production shots to deleted scenes & costume tests. :) Enjoy!

    Oh boy-
    Easily the most significant collection of rare stills I've seen of Keaton's Bat in aeons. Some awesome shots here but who is the stand-in modelling the costume in the last few? I'm sure Bat-costumers will thank you for the level of detail on display here. Thanks for sharing!!!

    Great stuff. But since you have wisely watermarked every still why don't you scan these in higher quality? We dont use them for commercial reasons, a decent wallpaper or printing quality for our collections is all we ask :)

      I went over this a few times with you when you complained about the size on Facebook... I am sorry you are not happy with what is presented here. Part of the deal in getting them was that they be watermarked and published at a smaller size to protect the owner's originals. We paid our own money into getting what is shown here so that all fans could check them out, asking nothing in return. Again though... sorry we weren't able to give you something better.
