Join us for a two-part celebration of 100th anniversary of "Tarzan" by Edgar Rice Burroughs. Film historian Doug Deuchler will introduce and screen "Tarzan and His Mate" on Nov. 10. Frank Lipo, Executive Director of the Historical Society of Oak Park & River Forest, will share the history of Edgar Rice Burroughs in Oak Park. In the film, Tarzan and Jane, run into a team of poachers who plan to raid an elephant burial ground for the ivory.

On Saturday, Nov. 17, Burroughs' expert, Scott Tracy Griffin, will share stories from the official Centennial book, "Tarzan." Griffin has 30 years of articles appearing in magazines, journals, academia and fanzines. Griffin lives within swinging distance of Tarzana, California. His new book contains classic comic strips, cover art, movie stills and photographs.
