Batman comics' popularity before the 70 or 80s

Usually when Batman fans talk about his comics, they always seem to refer to comics that came out in the 80s and beyond, such as The Dark Knight Returns, Year One, A Death in the Family, The Killing Joke, Knightfall, The Long Halloween, The Court of The Owls/Night of the Owls, etc. But no one ever seems to talk about the comics before the mid-70s or early 80s. Like from 1939 to the 70s.

Do any of you consider his comics before the more popular titles relevant or interesting? Or are they just relics of their time?
