Ships in box from the USA quickly & w/care. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ SYNOPSIS & HISTORY: Published in 1934 by the Cupples & Leon Company this vintage adventure hardcover represents the sixteenth volume in the Bomba the Jungle Boy series. The narrative follows the young protagonist as he leads a perilous expedition through deep equatorial wilderness striving to guide a group of stranded travelers safely to the coast. Tensions peak when the party must cross the territory of the Sitanda tribe drawing the ire of the hostile tribal leader Mabogi and the medicine man Mangu in a classic test of jungle survival and navigation. The physical volume features the publisher's bright orange cloth boards debossed with a bold black stamped illustration of the jungle boy on the front cover and spine. A red top edge tint decorates the text block which includes illustrated endpapers and a glossy frontispiece plate illustrated by Howard L. Hastings. Walter S. Rogers designed the illustrated dust jacket. Bibliographic analysis points to a true first state with series lists on both the book's internal pages and the dust jacket front flap ending precisely at this sixteenth title and the jacket's rear panel advertising contemporary 1934 releases. Created under the Stratemeyer Syndicate's house pseudonym Roy Rockwood the Bomba books occupied a prominent position in interwar American youth culture alongside other major syndicate properties. Late-series entries published during the peak of the Great Depression were produced in restricted print runs. The first-state dust jacket and interior plates document early twentieth-century American children's literature and illustration. Cupples & Leon Company hardcover
