A Vintage Autographed Hardcover Book (measures 5 3/4" x 8 1/2" [15 x 22 cm]; 330 pages) (Learn More) Johnny Weissmuller was an Austro-Hungarian (now Romania) actor from the 1920s to the 1970s. He was the 1924 Olympic swimming champion, and he set a number of world records, and he never lost a race. In 1940, at the age of 36, he broke his own world record in the 100-yard freestyle, which he had set 13 years earlier, and which stood for another 4 years before finally being broken after 17 years! But of course, he is best remembered for playing Tarzan starting in 1932 (in "Tarzan the Ape Man", followed by "Tarzan and His Mate", and many others!), and later he starred as Jungle Jim in the 1950s. Weissmuller passed away in 1984 at the age of 79. Important Added Info: Note that this book has been personally autographed (signed) by Johnny Weissmuller! Our consignor is a major Tarzan collector for the past 60 years, and he met Mr. Weissmuller in person at a convention, and he autographed this book for him in person. We are 100% certain the autograph is authentic, but he does not have a certificate of authenticity.
