While a handsome-looking production, the costs of Tarzan Finds a Son! were kept at a tidy $880,000, thanks to the extensive use of stock footage from earlier series entries as well as from Trader Horn (1931). Sheffield, seven years old at the time of filming, won the role - with Weissmuller's approval - that over 300 youngsters had tested for.
