Description

Scratch-built Batsuit display/storage closet, with door-activated overhead lighting.   This was only briefly seen on film, after the scene when Rachel Dawes greets Bruce Wayne on his birthday, before being called away to Arkham. Bruce slips through a hidden passagrway in his study and takes the elevator down to the caves, where he opens the doors to this armoire to reveal the suit hanging there waiting for him.   Standing at 80 inches tall and 52 inches wide, this replica was based on rare behind-the-scenes photos of the original piece. The wood construction is fitted with antique brass hardware. Custom made steel armatures support the cowl and suit, with steel shelves for the boots and gauntlets.
