Need answer fast
Who was the bust that Batman opened up to get to the Bat-poles??
Mozart?
Beethoven?
Shakespeare?
From IMDB: They gain access to the Batcave via Batpoles hidden in Bruce’s study. There is a hidden switch inside a bust of William Shakespeare that, once flipped, causes a false bookcase to slide open, revealing the poles.
Shakespeare.
EDIT: Must… type… faster…

Thanks!
Knew it was one of them
Got me a beer!
Yep, it was Shakespeare.
To the Batmovile!
Holy flaming fingers, Batman!

But surely the World’s Greatest Detective would know that the canon was written by Edward de Vere, Seventeenth Earl of Oxford!
I just can’t believe we’re talking about busts on Batman - and we’re NOT talking about Julie Newmar! 
Or Yvonne Craig!
Or Eartha Kitt!
