THE STORYTELLER!

Here's a blast from Chicago's TV past!...THE STORYTELLER!  I remember watching this as a very young kid.  If I recall correctly, THE STORYTELLER was a figural bookend that came to life.  8^)

LIFE Magazine...March 11, 1966.  Adam "Batman" West on the cover!  This hangs on my office/studio wall!  8^)
One of my friends posted this cool Batman & Robin (Adam West & Burt Ward) pic on Facebook.  I like how you can see the marks on the ground indicating where they needed to stand for the camera shot.  8^)

I'm still enjoying this book tremendously!  "Hal Lifson's 1966!  A Personal View of The Coolest Year in Pop Culture History", by my pal, 1960s aficionado HAL LIFSON.  If you don't already have this book, I highly recommend it!  This ad promoted a book signing with Author HAL LIFSON and TV's Batman, ADAM WEST, at the Bookstar Bookstore in Studio City, CA back in 2003.
