    First printing, 1964. A collected edition of Edgar Rice Burroughs' Tarzan and the Jewels of Opar, his fifth Tarzan novel written in six weeks. This edition features the reprinted novel along with rare illustrations by J. Allen St. John from the hardcover edition and Frank Parker. This collection also includes an illustrated bibliography including domestic and foreign hardcover and paperback editions, movies and comics. In addition, House of Greystoke includes a J. Allen St. John Folio, which reproduces all the artwork drawn especially for the serialization in the ultra-rare Wichita Eagle newspaper. The folio measures 9 3/4-in. x 13 3/4-in. when unfolded and consists of nine loose folded pages printed on both sides. As usual with House of Greystoke productions, this is as thorough as it could have been in 1964 and exquisitely well done. Book is side-stapled, 7-in. x 9 3/4-in., 122 pages, B&W. Folio is folded, 7-in. x 9 3/4-in., 9 loose sheets printed on both sides.
