GROUP OF BOYS (WHO ARE) TARZAN FANS
Published by AKARNAF in 1961
The author was YOVAV 
(which was the pen name of the writers of the regular 
Tarzan stories from Akarnaf publishers.)

This was a series of two stories published in 13 issues about a group of kids who are fans of Tarzan AKARNAF  stories. In imitation of Tarzan they always begin in their own tree house from which they go out to have many adventures against spies and criminals.

THE YOUNG DETECTIVES AND
TARZAN COME TO SOLOMON BAY 
by Avner Carmeli 
(pen name of Shraga Gafni)
This book was published in 1958 as part of the "Young Detectives" series, in which the young heroes have African adventures with Tarzan. Here they go up against Arab slavers who plan evil things under the cover of making an Egyptian Tarzan movie.

The writer Gafni is one of Israel's best known adventure writers. He wrote some 150 books and translated 150 more. The art is by M. ARYE, pen name of ARYE MOSCOVITZ, and one of Israel's best-known and most prolific illustrators.


A February 2003 picture of Tarzan against Jewish hero the Golem.
It was drawn by the foremost comics artist of Israel
- Uri Fink - 
for a future project of both of us about the Golem. 
The actual picture and figure of Tarzan 
(maybe under another name) 
may or 
may not appear there, 
but it is still an interesting item.
