More famous as Flash Gordon or Buck Rogers, Buster Crabbe was also at one time one of the most popular Tarzans. He also appeared in a number of other serials. In this, his only serial not based on a character from the comics or radio, he's off to find buried treasure.
Two ex-Navy buddies travel to a tropical island to help search for a fugitive Nazi and a fortune in diamonds stolen by him during WWII, and encounter multiple dangers at the hand of a gang also seeking the treasure for the island's corrupt governor.
