Savage thrills! Pagan splendors!..."; "Love-Sacrifice to a Heathen Man-God!"; "Scores of gorgeous aqua-cuties... slaves to a villainous idol's will!"; "Original story and screen play by Carroll Young"; "Based upon the characters created by Edgar Rice Burroughs") starring Johnny Weissmuller (in the title role as Tarzan), Brenda Joyce (as Jane), Linda Christian (billed as "introducing Linda Christian"), George Zucco, and Andrea Palma. Note that Maureen O'Sullivan tired of playing Jane in the Tarzan movies, and in 1943, two Tarzan movies were made with no Jane at all, and in 1945, she was replaced by Brenda Joyce, who played the role in five movies.

Important Added Info: A talented restorer gel backed the poster (meaning they backed the poster onto a gel material) and they then performed excellent restoration to the defects described below, and then removed the gel backing, so that the poster still exactly looks and feels like an original poster (and it is!), with no backing at all. The restoration was done really well, and the poster displays really well! This poster is still capable of being rolled and sent in a tube, but we would prefer to send it in a flat package, so there is no chance of damage. Condition: good to very good. The poster was gel backed (see above). This particular poster had been folded once in each direction, with some wear on the foldlines and some creases, smudges, and a few small tears in the borders. The poster was gel backed by a talented professional and expert restoration was performed to the above defects. The poster looks fantastic, and it has had truly minor touch up, and best of all, it still completely looks and feels like an unrestored poster! Learn More about condition grades
