George Albright Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 OK guys I'm falling further into insanity! First the 1950s 'Areocar' and now this.Please read the old Ebay text from several years ago concerning the "Green Acres Batman and Robin Ice Cream Car" I am hoping to get the info to call one of its builders who was still alive in New Hampshire several years ago. I can't find anything about Batman and Robin Ice Cream though. Any help would be appreciated. Another forgotten fiberglass car saved,with the kind help of Geoffrey Hacker. Onward through the fog!

Guest Jim_Edwards Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 George you really know how to find weird stuff. That is certainly going to make for a most interesting project.Batman and Robin Ice Cream was produced by a subsidiary of Nestle and like anything tied to comic book characters the product apparently died with the demise of popularity. Below is the image of a large poster from those times. Collector value nearly $400. Go figure! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
George Albright Posted April 13, 2011 Author Share Posted April 13, 2011 THANK YOU so much for the photo of the poster. For some reason nothing shows up on the internet on Batman and Robin Ice cream. George Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
George Albright Posted April 13, 2011 Author Share Posted April 13, 2011 I think we are on to something! All of these items are for sale on Ebay,for around $10 for the cartons. George Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
