A close up shot of the mask worn by Michael Lipton. It seems to have been made from fabric.
Van Williams in a very early test shot which must have been taken around the time the ABC trailer was filmed. This
is the mask Van wore in the photo taken on the Batman set with Adam West.

Bruce Lee wore this mask in both screen tests.There were a few more designs before the producers finally
settled on one that everyone was happy with.
This appears to have been taken at the same test session. Note the floor and carpet. Maybe a picture of the two together
will re-surface at some point.

A transparency. It has a similar 'feel' to the one of Van Williams (right) and may have been taken at the same
photo session.
In late June 1966, stock footage was filmed of Bruce Lee and Van Williams operating the controls that revolved the Black
Beauty into position. It was intended to be used repeatedly throughout the series. However, it would all have to be re-shot...

This is a transparency that was used for publicity notably on the cover of a 'Castle Of Frankenstein' magazine.By the
time the first episode was filmed (below), the Green Hornet logo had been added between the eyes.
It seems that George Trendle really disliked the masks worn in the first episode. So, the design was changed
again. Plaster casts were taken of the actors faces which resulted in a much smoother fit.
