From September 1967 until March 1968, American actress and ballerina Yvonne Craig appeared in her highest-profile role as Batgirl/Barbara Gordon for the third and final season of the 1960s ABC TV series Batman.
As Batgirl, Craig wore a purple and yellow outfit and rode a “purple motorcycle with white lace trim”, whereas her alter ego Barbara Gordon was the librarian daughter of Commissioner Gordon. The New York Times praised her for “add[ing] a scrappy girl-power element” to a TV series it described as “campy”.
These fabulous photos captured portraits of Yvonne Craig as Batgirl during the filming of Batman in 1967 and 1968.
