~ BEFORE KING KONG THERE WAS THE LOST WORLD ~ !! SIR ARTHUR CONAN DOYLE'S EXCITING ADVENTURE SAGA ACCOMPANIED BY OVER 75 STILLS AND IMAGES FROM THE FIRST ANIMATED DINOSAUR FEATURE FILM !! From London's elite halls of scientific learning to the mosquito infested jungles of deepest South America, a band of intrepid explorers embark on the most improbable mission of the early 20th century - to prove the existence of living relics of the Jurassic age. Stranded on a lost plateau, four men battle the elements, primitive hordes of sub-humans and dinosaurs. This edition of Doyle's groundbreaking novel of 1912 is accompanied by numerous scenes from the equally groundbreaking film of 1925, produced by First National Pictures - the first feature film to use stop-motion dinosaurs as a key plot element and the first version of many cinematic renditions of Doyle's novel. Groundbreaking special effects were designed by the early master of the form, Willis H. O'Brien, later to achieve fame for his work on KING KONG, the epic giant-ape-on-the-loose story. With over 75 photos and illustrations!!! This is the complete novel with accompanying pictures and more. It is the first volume in a series of Silent-Photoplay Editions based upon famous films of the silent era.
