1904: April: The gold dredging company fails and Harry gets Ed a
job
as railroad policeman for the Oregon Short Line Railroad Company
at Salt Lake City.
He is armed with a Colt six-gun, serial number 70495.
To help pay the bills they take in boarders:
Ed has a card printed up with a photo of the two of them
on one side with information on the other side:
"Newly Furnished Rooms for Single Men.

$10.00 Per Month for One. $12.00 Per Month for Two.

Tarzana Pharmacy was one of the first businesses to settle in Tarzana.
(The sign notes a 1931 founding date, but I have February, 1928
in my notes.)
I believe this photo is from circa 1965, with founding pharmacist

Those days when armies of terror like ISIS at Syria and Boko Haram
at Nigeria murdered thousands
I remember a Tarzan comics story by /Dick Van Buren and Celrado: TARZAN
AND THE MONGOL TERROR
In this story Tarzan fights a present day Mongol conqueror who terrorizes
and conquers African tribes and forces them to join his army.
Like today armies of terror.
That story is actually a quite good prediction of events today.:
Here the Hebrew cover of the story from the 70s
The prophetic story itself is here:

Burne Hogarth's handling of anatomy and architecture is simply amazing,
and this strip is a good illustration as to why he's considered
an "Artist's Artist."

ERB on the Tarzan set with Johnny Weissmuller and Maureen O'Sullivan
Himmelskibet
/ A trip to Mars
A 1918 silent Danish SciFi film
This very early SF film is quite well made with very impressive
sets and costumes.
Upon arrival to Mars, the crew go to the trouble of putting on "space
suits" to go outside the ship
but only wear them for about two seconds when they discover "air"
on Mars.
JOHNNY WEISSMULLER

Just before he was cast as Tarzan and most likely during the period
in which
he was employed as a high-profile model for BVD swimwear.

Slave in the City of Dragons
(Dinosaurs and Gladiators Book 1)
[Amazon
Kindle Edition: $4.95]
Angela Angelwolf
Savagery, Lust and Adventure at Time's Abyss: Beautiful Pashera
sets off on a quest to kill a fabled beast and thus raise her status in
her primitive tribe.
But she's captured by a warrior, Tol'zen ... a warrior who's not
quite human.
He's a descendant of dinosaurs, and she becomes first his slave,
then his lover in an ancient city.
It's a lost civilization of magic, mystery and unimaginable sin
dating back countless millennia.
But past glory has curdled to rot, and the city is sliding into
decadence and depravity.
Tol'zen fights for the soul of his people,
while Pashera finds herself fighting in the arena against fierce
women, worse men and monsters straight out of hell.
It's an era of brutal violence, raw sex, wonders and horrors.
Brave and resourceful, Pashera risks everything to find freedom
and true love at the dawn of time.
Will she succeed … or will she end up another nameless and bloody
stain on the sand? 489 pages

Tarzan
PLANET OF THE APE-MAN
Empire, Issue #279, September 2012
Owen
Williams Blog ~ Posted on 27/08/2014
This is a feature I wrote for Empire a couple of years ago, for
the centenary of Edgar Rice Burroughs’ Tarzan of the Apes.
It begins with a visit to the set of the CG animated Tarzan starring
Kellan Lutz, which was finally released earlier this year,
and then continues as a history of the character (mostly on screen)
from his inception to the present day.
The final paragraphs mention a big developing Tarzan project
at Warner Bros.
That film is now in production, with Alexander Skarsgård
as Tarzan, a screenplay by Adam Cozad, and David Yates directing.
