11x14 The Penguin Framed Zenart Movie Card 1992
The Penguin is a short, rotund man known for his love of birds and his specialized high-tech umbrellas. A mobster and thief, he fancies himself a "gentleman of crime"; his nightclub business provides a cover for more low-key criminal activity, which Batman tolerates as a source of criminal underworld information. According to co-creator Bob Kane, the character was inspired from the then advertising mascot of Kool cigarettes - a penguin with a top hat and cane. Bill Finger also thought the image of high-society gentlemen in tuxedos was reminiscent of emperor penguins. Our short, rotund man appears to be fleeing from Batman in this framed movie card. The frame is 11x14", is black and gold, is from 1992, and is near mint condition. Don't flee away from this item, it's quite a catch... *
