<B>All-Story Weekly "The Lad and the Lion" Group (Munsey, 1917) Condition: Average VG.</B></I> A variation on his own Tarzan stories, Edgar Rice Burroughs' "The Lad and the Lion" is one of the finest examples of his early writing. These three issues of <B>All-Story Weekly </B></I>represent the complete serialization of the story. Included are the June 30, 1917 issue, with a beautiful cover image painted by Modest Stein that features a movie audience watching a projected image of a young man with his arm around a lion; the July 7, 1930 issue, with a portrait of an attractive woman on the cover; and the July 14, 1930 issue, which also features a cover story by Max Brand, as well as the first installment of "The Terrible Three" by Tod Robbins, filmed in 1925 as <I>The Unholy Three</B></I> by Tod Browning with Lon Chaney in the lead role. These are gorgeous copies, especially given their age, with virtually complete spines, tight binding, and supple pages -- definite must haves for the serious collector. Approximate Bookery's Guide to Pulps value for group = $800.<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Books & Catalogs (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
