Featured in this lot is the Rare First Edition of, "Tarzan and the Jewels of Opar" by Edgar Rice Burrough, 1918, Grossett & Dunlap Publishers New York. Tarzan and the Jewels of Opar is a novel by American writer Edgar Rice Burroughs, the fifth in his series of twenty-four books about the title character Tarzan. It first appeared in the November and December issues of All-Story Cavalier Weekly in 1916, and the first book publication was by McClurg in 1918. Immediately popular, Burroughs continued the series into the 1940s with two dozen sequels, and the Tarzan character has been immortalized in books, films and television since. Tarzan was the first literary character to be registered in a trademark. Burroughs (1875-1950), was an American author best-known for creating the characters Tarzan and John Carter and he capitalized on it in every way possible, including a syndicated Tarzan comic strip, movies, and merchandise. Tarzan remains one of the most successful fictional characters to this day and is a cultural icon.
