Description

Tarzan and His Mate (MGM, 1934). Lobby Streamer (161.5" X 43.5").
When MGM stoked their campaign to sell the follow-up to their blockbuster hit, Tarzan, the Ape Man (1932), they pulled out all of the stops. This fabulous and colorful streamer was shown in the pressbook and described as such; "7 pieces strung together and lithographed in striking colors. Many other spots in your theater besides the lobby will benefit from these streamers." Lithographed on hard cardboard, one side only, with several perforations drilled in each piece as was manufactured, this is an extreme rarity and few of these streamers have survived from any film. The center piece pictures Johnny Weissmuller as Tarzan and Maureen O'Sullivan as Jane, both astride an elephant. Get into the swing of things and bid now, as you will probably never see this again! Fine/Very Fine.
