Description
Reed Crandall Tarzan and the Madmen Book Illustration Original Art (Canaveral Press, 1964). With a mighty leap to the trees, the Lord of the Jungle rescues Sandra Pickerall, heiress to Thomas Pickerall's Ale, from the clutches from her enraged captors, the Alemtejos tribe. This classically rendered ink drawing with the caption, "The next instant the captive was gone," has an overall size that measures 11" x 15", and the art is in Excellent condition. "The drums boomed forth the incredible message from tribe to tribe-Tarzan, Lord of the Jungle, had become an enemy to all, stealing and enslaving their women...even the daughter of an English millionaire, who offered a princely reward for her recapture and Tarzan's death. Certainly her captor told Sandra Pickerall that he was Tarzan...but he also told her he was God... Tarzan followed their trail with one thought in mind-to pursue and destroy utterly the man who had stolen his name and made it infamous in the jungle world he loved." A Reed Crandall fan would be hard-pressed to find a more magnificent Tarzan illustration than this one.Auction Info
