Title
Batwing Master Pattern/Buck Used to Create the Filming Miniature from Batman (Warner Bros., 1989).
Description
Original master pattern (aka buck) model used to make the mold that created the Batwing filming miniature. Constructed of carved wood, cast resin, fiberglass, and mixed-media components. Painted in cobalt blue. Designed and created for Tim Burton's first installment in the superhero franchise, this represents the first time the superhero vehicle was called a "Batwing" rather than "Batplane" and the first time the Bat-insignia was incorporated into the overall design. The 27.25" x 22" x 6" model exhibits age, production handling, paint rubbing, scratching, and does not include back fins, cockpit dome, artillery, or other accessories (such items were created using separate, distinct molds). Comes with a COA from Heritage Auctions. From the Collection of Greg Jein.
