MEET THE ARTIST: Bob Kane Mini-Biography in Batman # 1

Some super-lucky comic book collector, who owns a RARE copy of the original Batman #1 comic book, posted this picture on the net. He scanned the page that features a mini-biography of Bob Kane ( the co-creator of Batman ) called "Meet The Artist". It's large enough to read ( click on the picture for a larger version ). The part where it says "Bob is not a copyist" kinda makes me laugh. I mean, from what we now know about how he was a major "art swiper". But, the staged photo of him working is kinda cool & it's a great piece of Bat-History!

I wonder what might have happened if a guy like Bill Finger had raised a stink back in the day in the attempt at getting the credit he deserved.
