Board game:Batman Electronic Question and Answer Quizz Machine

The Lisbeth Whiting Company produced officially licenced and non-licensed games and toys related to movies and television during the 1960s era. Later the firm moved toward craft kits, especially knitting sets. In the late 1960s the firm produced an electric (battery operated) question and answer game based on the very popular television series "Batman," which itself was based on the DC comic books. The successful and, some believe, iconic television series breathed new life into DC's then-unpopular Batman comic character, although the comic became much darker after the series was cancelled. Batman fans felt the series, a parody of comics in general, treated the characters too lightly. Regardless, the Whiting questiojn game demonstrates the popularity of the series at that time.
