The GCD says this was an unauthorized series. Most art on the four issues was by Sam Glanzman.

It was related to the mid 1960s printing of five unauthorized Tarzan books written by Barton Werper (pen name) and published by Gold Star Books, an imprint of Charlton.

Here's some pics of the covers

from wikipedia

After Burroughs' death a number of writers produced new Tarzan stories without the permission of his estate. In some instances, the estate managed to prevent publication of such unauthorized pastiches. The most notable exception in the United States was a series of five novels by the pseudonymous "Barton Werper" that appeared 1964-65 by Gold Star Books. As a result of legal action by Edgar Rice Burroughs, Inc., they were taken off the market and remaining copies destroyed. Similar series appeared in other countries, notably Argentina, Israel, and some Arab countries.

These are spotlighted items - not always 'old' because of when they were made but rather these are things that were posted awhile ago on this blog and have been 'archived' in the back.
