Description

Tarzan of the Apes (First National, 1918). Lobby Card (11" X 14"). Directed by Scott Sidney and starring Elmo Lincoln as Tarzan, Enid Markey as Jane, George B. French and Gordon Griffith, this was the first Tarzan movie ever made, and is based on Edgar Rice Burroughs' original novel "Tarzan of the Apes." This film may be the most faithful cinematic rendering of Burroughs' first Tarzan novel to date. Lincoln would appear in two sequels including the serial "The Adventures of Tarzan" two years later (look for a poster from that gem also offered in this auction). This gorgeous hand-tinted card is a fabulous portrait of Lincoln as Tarzan and Enid Markey as Jane. The card has been cleaned and is in excellent condition. Very Fine+.
