MAKE A CAMERA JOURNEY INTO THE REALM OF UNDERGROUND FAIRYLANDS
With
THE CAVE MAN
The pictures Mr. Neville shows have been selected from thousands of his cave photographs taken in his travels in over two hundred American caverns.
No other living person has ever travelled so far in so many caves.
Floyd Collins, who lost his life in the greatest cave tragedy of modern times, was an intimate friend of Mr. Neville's, and these two intrepid cave explorers reached points in caves never before seen by human eyes.
You are sure to be delighted with this unique, educational, beautifully illustrated lecture. Millions have heard it from the platform and over the radio.
IN THE CELLARS OF THE WORLD is packed with surprises, thrills, adventure and beauty, an educational lecture that has pleased 2500 audiences of every character.
WHAT OTHERS SAY:
The late Lorado Taft, famous artist, said:
You certainly have a unique and notable lecture. Your pictures are wonderfully fine, and the adventures that lie behind them are very thrilling. In spite of all of the beauty that you have brought to light, I heartily testify that no reward would ever get me into those tight places.
Mr. Arthur C. Page, Editor, Prairie Farmer, writing to a College President:
Mr. Neville has spoken several times over WLS (The Prairie Farmer Radio Station), and I have seen a great many of his wonderful pictures. He is one of the most fascinating speakers I have ever listened to.
Mr. D. E. Northam, Chairman Entertainment Committee, The Adventurers' Club, Chicago, Illinois:
I want to convey to you the thanks of the entire membership of the Adventurers' Club for the most interesting, educational and thrilling program you gave us at our last Ladies' Night. I hope we may have you again.
Dr. Charles D. Sneller, Past President, Illinois State Academy of Sciences:
I have heard the CAVE MAN deliver his lecture many times. He thrills children and adults alike. He has spoken before the Peoria Rotary Club, the Peoria Kiwanis Club and the Peoria Academy of Sciences and always captivated his audiences. His pictures are a marvel and his lecture is unusually interesting.
Dr. C. O. Schneider, Owl Club, Chicago. (An organization of professional men and women).
I want to express appreciation for your lecture. Your photography is unusually fine. Many of your pictures are real gems of artistic merit. We are, as you know, some photographers, ourselves, each member almost rating as an expert in some phase of photographic art. We were more keenly interested in your pictures technically, than an average audience. It is no exaggeration to say that your lecture and pictures was the best program we have had in several years.
Mr. Neville's cave photographs have been shown literally all over the world in the most important International Photographic Salons, winning many special medals and diplomas.
