Tut, the boy king offers a view of 55 of the treasures from the tomb of Tutankhamun, including parchesi- like games the ten-year-old Pharoah used, his diminutive ebony and gold inlaid chair, statues and jewelry.

Documents the excavation and discovery of Tut's tomb in 1922.

Filmed at the National Gallery of Art in Washington DC. 55 objects from the tomb of Tutankhamun included the boy-king's solid gold funeral mask, a gilded wood figure of the goddess Selket, lamps, jars, jewelry, furniture, and other objects for the afterlife. The exhibition established the term "blockbuster." A combination of the age-old fascination with ancient Egypt, the legendary allure of gold and precious stones, and the funeral trappings of the boy-king created an immense popular response. Visitors waited up to 8 hours before the building opened to view the exhibition.
