An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded Style A Three-Sheet Movie Poster (3sh; measures 41" x 81" [104 x 206 cm]) (Learn More)

Tarzan's Secret Treasure, the 1941 Richard Thorpe Africa action jungle adventure fantasy thriller ("NEW THRILLS 2 years in production"; "See King Tarz The Celebrated Jungle Actor"; "Reenacting one of the Thrilling Scenes from Metro-Goldwyn-Meyers's New Tarzan picture"; "Based upon the characters created by Edgar Rice Burroughs") starring Johnny Weissmuller (in the title role as Tarzan), Maureen O'Sullivan (as Jane), Johnny Sheffield (as Boy), Reginald Owen, Barry Fitzgerald, Tom Conway, Philip Dorn, Cordell Hickman (as Tumbo; a black African American juvenile actor who retired when he was 14, but he only received stereotypical roles given to young blacks of that time), Cheeta (the chimpanzee), and "King Tarz" (the "Sensational Jungle Actor", the lion).

If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.
Important Added Info: Note that 1941 first release posters from this movie are extremely rare (likely because it was quickly re-released in both 1948 and 1954, which would have used up the first release posters). We previously auctioned a first release style B three-sheet (oddly, we auctioned the exact same poster three different times, before and after it was backed). But we only auctioned one example of the style B, and this is the very first time we have ever auctioned this first release style A three-sheet! Also note that this three-sheet was printed in 2 sections designed to overlap.

Condition: fair. The poster has two areas of paper loss at two crossfolds in the image (see our image). It is also extremely fragile and has completely separated on parts of many folds and has other defects. Obviously, this extremely rare poster has REALLY major condition issues, but it can certainly be "rescued" by a talented restorer. But please bear this expense in mind (and look at our super-sized image) before placing a bid on the poster.
