It is generally agreed that the Golden Age of Comic books covers the years from 1938 until the early 1950s. During the Golden Age many of the stories and covers revolved around the political events of the day, with Superheros encouraging people to buy War Bonds and battling the Axis Powers. Possibly due to the harsh realities of war, people yearned for stories of good triumphing over bad, and so the popularity of the Comics Superhero grew. Many of today’s most popular superhero’s, including the urban knight known as Batman, were first introduced in this era.

Possessing no super-human powers, DC Comics’ dark detective employed a variety of amazing gadgets and vehicles during his unending war on crime, including the world-famous Batmobile. Roaring into readers’ imaginations in its very first appearance, his trusted car evolved from a scarlet sedan to a blue convertible with a bat-shaped hood ornament. While earlier versions were eye-catching, it was Batman #5 (Spring 1941) that introduced the first Batmobile truly worth the name, complete with a "super-charged" engine, a scalloped tail fin and a bat’s head battering ram!

Corgi has introduced several vehicles from the Golden Age Era, including a limited edition two piece set, “The Gold Age”, containing the 1940s Batmobile and 1940s Roadster with Batman behind the wheel and a Robin character on a freestanding base.
