Roddyq, those howlers made so much noise, they probably drove the kingfishers away. People like to make theme rooms be it cowboy, Walt Disney, horror, etc. I'm guessing maybe some of the same illustrators who did lobby cards also were commissioned by the big popular companies to do their art work.

Lobby cards seem to have gone un noticed by many collectors as coca cola and other big name products have dominated the market with their paper poster ads. Some of the Mexican art is much more detailed then the North American lobby cards Phil brighter colors, more graphic. I was working in West Australia bb2 in 1982 living in a small camp listening to what I thought were monkeys was later informed it was kucaburros ( King fisher family ) making all the annoying racket.

Your movie lobby cards are really awesome! I'd actually never seen or heard of movie lobby cards until I saw all of you awesome posts. Of course that was in '84.įantastic art to go with these, wonderful find ! Totally unchanged including those bloody Howler monkeys that scream all nite. Sounds like a great adventure you had blunderbuss2!!! The scenery must have been so beautiful and untamed perfect for a Tarzan movie. I sailed a 37 footer up the Rio Dolce in Guatemala where they filmed the Weissmuller Tarzan movies. Her father tells her that is where Tarzan belongs, she cries, "No dad, he belongs to me.". But Tarzan turns his back on her and returns to the jungle. She wants Tarzan to come with her to London, and to be part of her world. The experience is terrifying to Jane at first, but as their relationship develops, she finds herself happy: "Not a bit afraid, not a bit sorry." As she returns to her father, her feelings are brought to a test. He notably fails to prevent her abduction by the jungle's guardian, the mysterious Tarzan (Johnny Weissmuller) and his ape allies. Holt is attracted to Jane, and tries somewhat ineffectively to protect her from the jungle's dangers. They are joined by Parker's daughter Jane (Maureen O'Sullivan). Aubrey Smith) and Harry Holt (Neil Hamilton) travel in Africa, on a quest for the legendary elephant burial grounds and their ivory. The film is loosely based on Burroughs' novel Tarzan of the Apes from approximately two decades earlier, with the dialogue written by Ivor Novello. It was Weissmuller's first of 12 Tarzan films. Tarzan the Ape Man is a 1932 American action adventure film featuring Edgar Rice Burroughs' famous jungle hero Tarzan and starring Johnny Weissmuller, Neil Hamilton, C. Well I continued digging through all the piles and found some other interesting classic American movies along with the Tarzan Lobby cards they are in Spanish but the colors and scenes were too interesting not to buy some. This movie was Johnny Weismuller's first big screen movie and his first Tarzan movie. 13"x17" they tend to be a little larger the the American cards ) appeared. As I was going through them all I was seeing were Mexican movies then to my surprise the above Tarzan the Ape Man lobby cards ( approx. I asked the owner if he had more and he pointed to more piles farther over. Beside some books on some shelves is where I spotted some old movie theater lobby cards. It took me less then 5 minutes to decide not to even go through the books.

It hasn't been open for very long so I decided to check it out. I'm always looking around though and was happy when I found this used book etc. It has been awhile since I have bought anything as garage sales/bazars here in Mexico are much different then in North America.
