Date Sold 7/12/2020Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Trolley Card (measures 20 3/4" x 27" [53 x 69 cm]) (Learn More) Tarzan, the Ape Man, the 1932 W.S. Van Dyke jungle adventure action melodrama ("The thrill of thrills!"; "The producers of 'Trader Horn' have again brought out of the African jungle another great romantic thriller!"; "Based upon the Characters created by Edgar Rice Burroughs") starring Johnny Weissmuller (in the title role as Tarzan), Neil Hamilton, Maureen O'Sullivan (as Jane), C. Aubrey Smith, Doris Lloyd, Ray Corrigan, Jack Leonard (both as uncredited apes!) and Cheetah (played by an uncredited chimpanzee). Note that Crash Corrigan and Jack Leonard both made a REALLY wise investment in the 1930s, when they acquired "gorilla suits". In many of the movies in the 1930s and 1940s where there is a fake gorilla, it is played by either Crash Corrigan or Jack Leonard, no doubt because they could supply the suits! Of course, this was one of the most successful "franchises" in movie history, with several sequels with Weissmuller and O'Sullivan, and then more movies with just Weissmuller alone (after O'Sullivan left the franchise), and then other actors took up the lead role many different times! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that we have never before auctioned this trolley card! It has a completely different artwork image of Weissmuller and O'Sullivan that we have not seen on any other poster. Condition: very good. The card had a U-shaped tear in the lower left, in the green background, and slightly extending into the edge of the leg, and someone put tape on the back of that. It also had a 1 1/2" tear in the lower right border and a tiny tear in the bottom right corner, and someone put tape on the back of those two areas, and also on the back of the top corners, where there were pinholes, and on the back of the upper left border, where there was a 1" tear. There are a few smudges and scuffs scattered throughout the poster. I would think most people could display this ultra rare poster exactly as it is! Learn More about condition grades
