      Production


      Tarzan and the Golden Lion was Pierce's only on-screen appearance as Tarzan. The next year, he married the daughter of Edgar Rice Burroughs, and the two went on to perform the voices of Tarzan and Jane in a Tarzan radio series from 1932 to 1936.


      Preservation status


      Considered a lost film for many decades - with Pierce trying in vain to locate a copy before his death - a complete print of the film was discovered in the 1990s.
