On a primitive-type raft of balsa logs that tossed like a cork they drifted at the whim of the trade winds from the shores of Peru to the isles where the hula girls wait! 1-1 days of surprise and suspense; of storm and sunshine; of peril and peace! ... 4,300 miles of uncharted sea. No contact with civilization. No sight of ship or shore. Nothing but themselves and their battle against the elements, their hair-raising contacts with rare and dangerous denizens of the deep, their full-couraged efforts to keep busy--alive--and afloat! Now you can live it all with them--from building the raft to bare-handed encounters with man-eating monsters--in the lifetime of excitement crowded into the greatest sea adventure of our time!"; "The amazing adventure of six men on a raft across the Pacific! True! Thrilling!"; "The amazing film record of six men on a raft across the Pacific! True! Thrilling!"; "Photographed by the men who lived it... Told by THOR HEYERDAHL author of the best-selling book."; Heyerdahl was convinced that South American Indians had sailed across the Pacific Ocean on rafts and had been the first people to settle in the Polynesian Islands; many people thought it was impossible to cross the ocean in a raft, so Heyerdahl and his team built a raft that replicated what those Indians would likely have made, and then they sailed it themselves, with the only exception to authenticity being that they took a radio; they survived and proved the point that it was possible!) featuring Thor Heyerdahl, Herman Watzinger, Erik Hesselberg, Knut Haugland, and Torstein Raaby Important Added Info: Note that we have provided an image of all the pages of this 4-page program (we did this by opening it and laying it flat and photographing the front and back cover together, and the interior two pages together). This way, you see the entire program, and can well determine the exact condition of it from our super-sized image. But of course this means that the front cover appears in the top right of our image, but normally, the program would be folded down the center and you would view the cover by itself (and it will be sent folded as was originally intended). Condition: very good to fine. Learn More about condition grades
