An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Lobby Card (LC; measures 11" x 14" [28 x 36 cm]) (Learn More)

Tarzan of the Apes, the 1918 Scott Sidney silent action adventure thriller ("The Wonder Story of the Age by Edgar Rice Burroughs"; "1000 people 1000") starring Elmo Lincoln (in the title role as "the screen's first Tarzan"), Enid Markey (as the screen's first Jane), True Boardman, Kathleen Kirkham, Thomas Jefferson, Bessie Toner, George French, and Gordon Griffith (as young Tarzan). Note that this classic book had been written four years earlier, but that it took four years for Hollywood to figure out how to film this book (in those pre-special effects days they were unsure of how to have the apes, which do lots of talking in the book). Elmo Lincoln reprised his role as Tarzan in "The Return of Tarzan". Note that he is normally referred to as the very first screen Tarzan, but actually it is the actor who played Tarzan as a boy in this movie, Gordon Griffith, who deserves that distinction!

Important Added Info: Note that we have a scan of both the front and the back of this lobby card, which should greatly help you see what defects it has.

Condition: very good. There is a pinhole in the center of both the left and right blank borders. There is some darkening and areas of surface paper loss on the back of the card, but it has little, if any, effect on the front. Note that this card is completely unrestored and there is not a single piece of tape on either the front or back!
