Description

The Adventures of Tarzan (Numa, 1921). Lobby Card (11" X 14"). One of the most popular fictional characters ever created, Tarzan was a massive hit from the publication of his first story in a 1911 issue of The All-Story Magazine. By 1918, he made the leap to the silver screen, with Elmo Lincoln in the title role. Sequels came thick and fast, with various degrees of success without Lincoln in the lead until, in 1921, it was decided to return him to the leopard-print loincloth he had worn several years earlier. The result was The Adventures of Tarzan, a 15-chapter serial based on author Edgar Rice Burroughs's novels The Return of Tarzan and Tarzan and the Jewels of Opar that was destined to become one of the top hits of the year, eclipsing even such classic films as Rudolph Valentino's The Sheik, and D. W. Griffith's Dream Street. Posters from this particular jungle epic is exceedingly scarce, with only a handful of lobby cards known to exist. This exceptional lobby card shows pinholes in the borders and corners, a slight stain in the top left, and light corner creasing. These are minimal concerns, however, especially considering the incredible rarity and desirability of this amazing find. Very Fine-.

Important notice: Heritage usually auctions material at the rate of 100-110 lots per hour. On some occasions eBay Live bid software or the Internet may not be able to keep up with the pace of the auction. We recommend placing a realistic absentee bid now as insurance to avoid disappointment. Occasionally the auctioneer may eliminate or reject an eBay Live bid, and the auctioneer may also reopen a lot after the close of the eBay live bidding (usually because we missed an audience bid), and may reject your bid even if it shows you as the winning bidder. By bidding via eBay Live, you agree that Heritage may award the lot to another bidder at its sole discretion under the circumstances described above or any other reasonable circumstances. Since eBay bids are not shown to us until we open the lot on the floor, we treat those bids just like floor bids. In most cases the floor responds before the eBay bid is presented to us, due to Internet lag time, so for consistency we have made it a policy that floor bids are always considered first over tie eBay live bids. Also please note that all Heritage lots purchased through eBay Live carry a 22.50% Buyer's Premium with a $9 minimum Buyer's Premium. Please make sure you read the Terms and Conditions before you bid. This lot is being auctioned in conjunction with a live floor auction by Heritage Auctions. All final auction and invoice information will be supplied by Heritage Auctions, and all other information should be considered preliminary. Lot:28068
