"1966 Screen-Test Batman!" The Making of a New Cosplay!

So, since I already owned all the Bat-accessories for my other '66 Batman" cosplays (click here), I decided to create a real rare one! Here is my take on the little-seen "screen-test TV Batman," wearing a costume similar to the makeshift outfit created for actor Adam West during his filmed try-outs for the "Batman" role! Click mage below to enlarge!

filming their '65 screen tests for their respective roles.
Of course, when filming officially began, the Batman
costume and cowl would be re-worked to its more
familiar look!

the unique bat-insignia seen in the screen-test footage!

other suit accessories!

the longer ears seen in the screen-test footage!
