Description
Tarzan and His Mate was released in 1934 just prior to the production code coming into effect in Hollywood that would put restrictions upon filmmakers for what they could put into their movies. Knowing the code was coming into effect, the producers of the Johnny Weismuller Tarzans decided to push the boundaries as much as possible. The film included a nude underwater swim with Jane. Maureen O'Sullivan admitted years later that a body double was used. However, she also said in the same interview that the producers had done some early tests to have her appear topless throughout most of the film. When it became too cumbersome, however, to come up with ways to hide her nipples, that wardrobe choice was abandoned in favor of the costume you see depicted here.
