Auction History Result 6g0461 KONGA 1/2sh 1961 great artwork of giant angry ape terrorizing city by Reynold Brown! Date Sold 4/11/2024 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Unfolded Half-Sheet Movie Poster (1/2sh; measures 22" x 28" [56 x 71 cm]) (Learn More) Konga, the 1961 John Lemont English/U.S. London England rampaging gorilla ape horror science fiction (sci-fi) thriller ("Not since 'King Kong' ...has the screen exploded with such mighty fury and spectacle!"; "Not since 'King Kong' ...has the screen thundered to such mighty excitement!"; "in Color and SpectaMation") starring Michael Gough, Margo Johns, Jess Conrad, Claire Gordon, Jack Watson, and Paul Stockman (in the title role as Konga). Note that the producers of the movie wisely made posters making Konga seem like King Kong, including standing tall over buildings and holding a pretty girl in his hand, but in the movie itself, Konga was a man in an ape suit and not a very convincing one, and people who went into the movie after seeing the posters must have been very confused and disappointed! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that this poster has never been machine folded! Some pre-1970 half-sheet posters were machine folded twice horizontally at the poster exchange, while some were not. It can be difficult to find an unfolded example of many pre-1970 half-sheet posters (note that most post-1970 half-sheets were NOT machine folded, so they are pretty much only found unfolded, and therefore this does not apply to those half-sheets). Condition: good. The poster was never folded. It has rippled throughout (see our image). There is some slight discoloration and there are a few smudges. Please see our super-sized image to get a good sense of the condition of this poster prior to placing a bid and please do not bid unless you can accept the defects described above, or you are willing to pay to have them properly restored.
