An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Pressbook (pb; measures 10 1/2" x 13 3/4" [27 x 35 cm]; 28 pages) (Learn More)

Adventures of Tarzan, the 1921 Robert F. Hill & Scott Sidney silent jungle adventure serial ("The mightiest of chapter plays..."; "Distributed by Adventures of Tarzan Serial Sales Corporation"; "The Wild Animal Serial Supreme"; "15 Electrifying Episodes"; "Picturized from the concluding chapters of 'The Return of Tarzan' by Edgar Rice Burroughs"; "Watch for it!"; "'The Tarzan of Tarzans'"; "Lions, elephants, crocodiles, leopards, apes, monkeys and a host of other jungle denizens. Scene after scene of thrill and excitement in each episode of 'Adventures of Tarzan.' The heroic Lincoln as Tarzan the Ape-Man is the central figure in a series of hair-breadth escapes and wonderful stunts which will keep you on the edge of your chair throughout the entire serial.") starring Elmo Lincoln (best remembered for being the very first actor to portray Tarzan in the movies in 1918), Louise Lorraine, Lillian Worth, and Frank Whitson. Note that this movie was a sequel to the very first Tarzan movie made in 1918, "Tarzan of the Apes", with Elmo Lincoln in the title role. This movie also starred Elmo Lincoln as Tarzan, and they are the only two Tarzan movies starring Lincoln. Original movie paper from either of these movies is EXTREMELY scarce!

Important Added Info: Note that we have provided an image of the front and back covers of the pressbook, plus an image of a two-page spread from inside of the pressbook (we do NOT picture any supplements or heralds, if there are any included with this pressbook), and of course, the winner of this auction will receive the entire single pressbook we are auctioning (plus any supplements or heralds described above)! Also note that this pressbook is complete and uncut! Given that theater owners purchased pressbooks partly in order to create their newspaper advertising, and quite frequently cut them up for that purpose, it is rare to find a pressbook that IS complete and uncut!

Condition: fair, NO CUTS. The front cover has many stains scattered on it. The covers and the first two and last two interior pages are separated from each other and from the rest of the pressbook. There are areas of paper loss around the edges of both covers and there are many tape repairs on the front and back of both covers, and on the edges of many of the interior pages. There is paper loss in the bottom center of all pages (but only blank white paper is affected. While the pressbook has lots of real defects, it is complete, and this is surely the only way to see the magnificent posters created for this historic silent Tarzan movie!
