Best Colors for "Batman" Balmoral?

[MacWage]

I happen to have large a clasp pin/badge/button of the 1960s Batman logo (yellow oval with the word Batman-red- over a bat sillouette-black- and a Batman head-blue, black, and "flesh"). It is JUST the right size for a bonnet badge.

SO, I am going to make a Balmoral just for this pin.

I would like opinions as to JUST which color combo would be the most "appropriate." All are "historically" correct for Batman at various periods.

-All Black (hat, torrie, everything)
-Black body, red torrie
--red trim and tails
--black trim and tails
-Black body and torrie, gray trim
-Navy body, black torrie, trim and tails
-Royal blue body, black torrie, trim and tails
-Royal body, yellow torrie, black trim and tails
-other ideas/combos?

The main colors I am open to are black, gray, royal blue, and yellow

-I could, but am NOT using purple, though it could be EASILY argued.
I am making a specific purple and black one to use with the Warrior kilt and MacBubba.

Black and gray all the way! There is something about the old colours that really does it for me. (When we took the kids out for Halloween this year... I was in full cowl and cape, my one-year-old Levi was dressed as Robin, and Haley, my youngest daughter was 'Bat WOMAN... not Bat GIRL! as she constantly reminded me...)
Have fun with this one! I would love to see a pic of the pin, and of course, the finished product!
To the Bat Pole!

Because the pin is vintage 1960s I would go with the TV show colors; Blue and Gray, with yellow trim.

AS SOON as I get photobucket set up, I'll post one.

(it is a matter of schedule, finding hours to spend setting up an account and playing with it)

I think blue balmoral with gray trim and a yellow torrie ...

The badge is basically this on a yellow oval:


And its from 1982 (just noticed copyright on the bottom edge (very small)

Found better pic, of another in the ACTUAL pin run.
