Jungle Jim (1948)
Directed by William Berke
Starring Johnny Weissmuller, Virginia Grey, George Reeves, Lita Baron
Voodoo Tiger (1952)

Savage Mutiny (1953)

Jungle Man-Eaters (1954)

Devil Goddess (1955)

The six pictures in the set range from the first to the last of the 16 Jungle Jim movies. Every indication is that this is Region Free. This is the kind of stuff that will make 2020 a very good year!
