An Undated (probably 1970s) Re-Release (re-titled "King Konga" for this re-release) Vintage Theatrical Folded Argentinean Movie Poster (measures 27 1/4" x 39 1/2") (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. Artist: Reynold Brown Important Added Info: Note that the distributors of this movie attempted to fool Argentinean theatergoers into thinking that the greatest ape of all was the star of this movie, by cleverly re-titling it "King Konga"! Condition: poor to fair. There are pencil & ink pen marks throughout the poster and there are some stains, areas of surface paper loss, and tattering along the foldlines and edges. Please do not bid on this poster unless you can accept its defects or are willing to pay to have it properly restored! Learn More about condition grades
