Author of numerous other jungle and science fiction novels and novellas, including The Land That Time Forgot , Burroughs had a writing career that spanned almost 30 years, with his last novel, The Land of Terror , being published in 1941. He died in 1950 at his ranch near Tarzana, the California town named for his legendary hero.

Being a a collector, as well as a dealer, I understand the importance of condition, as well as rarity of an item, and the desire to own scarce and one of a kind items.
