If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that the German poster designer for this circa 1960s re-release poster created really cool art of a Kong that is quite faithful to the movie looming over the New York skyline holding Fay Wray. But he took the liberty of updating the bi-planes to modern jets, and he added a tank that is firing right at Kong's crotch! Also note that the movie was re-titled "King Kong and the White Woman" in German! Condition: very good to fine. The poster was folded once in each direction and there was minor fold wear. There were some stains in the top blank border and some minor border wear. Overall, the poster was in very good to fine condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was nicely backed, and displays well! Learn More about condition grades
