EDITORS COMMENTS
In this nostalgic print from November 1966, Batman and Robin are seen valiantly escorting Father Christmas into a bustling city store. As thousands of excited children surge around them, their eyes light up at the sight of the gleaming Batmobile driving up to Lewiss in Market-Street, Manchester. The caped crusaders become the center of attention as they step out of their iconic vehicle. Dressed as Batman is Frank Smith, a 27-year-old building manager who embodies the superhero's strength and determination. By his side is John Scholes, a publicity artist who perfectly captures Robin's youthful energy and spirit. Together, they create an unforgettable duo that brings joy to both young and old during this festive season. The crowd eagerly rushes towards these beloved characters but alas! Batman and Robin manage to elude their grasp by swiftly disappearing into the store. Their mission accomplished - ensuring Father Christmas' safe arrival - they leave behind an atmosphere filled with excitement and wonder. This photograph encapsulates the magic of childhood memories; it transports us back to a time when superheroes were real and dreams had no limits. The combination of costumes, masks, Chevrolet motorcars, and Santa Claus himself creates an enchanting scene that celebrates both fantasy and tradition. As we gaze upon this image captured by Mirrorpix for Memory Lane Prints, we can't help but feel a sense of nostalgia for those carefree days when anything seemed possible – even encountering our favorite superheroes on the streets of our own city.
