EXPLORE THE UNKNOWN
With
THE CAVE MAN
Let him take you adventuring into marvelous underground fairylands. Mr. Neville shows you wonderfully beautiful pictures especially selected from thousands of his world famous cave photographs. There is no other living man who has been in more American caves or travelled so many miles in so many caverns. Floyd Collins, whose tragic death in Sand Cave aroused the sympathy of the world, and Mr. Neville, two intrepid cave explorers, reached places in caves never before seen by human eyes.
IN THE CELLARS OF THE WORLD is packed full of thrills, surprises, adventure and beauty, and is illustrated with choice colored lantern slides.
You are sure to be delighted with this unique, educational, illustrated lecture. Millions have heard it from the platform and over the radio.
A FEW OPINIONS
Perhaps you read Mr. Clay Perry's article in the July 12th, 1941, issue of the Saturday Evening Post, in which he paid high tribute to Mr. Neville's Cave explorations.
An excerpt:
But I'm a novice alongside Russell Trall Neville, the Cave Man of Kewanee, Illinois. ***Neville has travelled more than a thousand miles underground and taken more than 5000 photographs of what he calls THE CELLARS OF THE WORLD.
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.
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.
