What an incredibly cool toy! The
Batman Give-A-Show Bat-Projector! This was from The U.K., by Chad Valley licensed by Kenner. Why Kenner didn't release this in the states I'll never know. I'm a sucker for the Kenner projectors anyway, but with Batman in the mix, I would've died to get this as a kid! When they started putting photos of the toys on the box instead of artwork like this, toys were less desirable I believe. It's from 1966, natch. "As seen on ABC Television"

Hi George! The US. counterpart company, Kenner offered both Red & Blue projectors in their sets, so it was just luck of the draw, so I suspect Chad Valley was the same. Nothing to worry about there. As to the value.... I don't know. As you say it is pretty rare... In a set with a great box, etc..I would say $50 - $100 USD would be a good deal, but I could be off. Thanks for writing!
Deleteoh I see, thanks very much for all that info! :)
