Schoedsack Africa New York City giant ape fantasy romantic love triangle adventure horror thriller ("'The most awesome thriller of all time' the one and only"; "Not beast.. Not human.... Not devil..

Important Added Info: Note that this S2 poster was printed in 3 sections designed to overlap. Note that this poster is from the "S2 Art Group". This company bought 100-year-old lithograph presses, completely refurbished them, and created stone slabs that allowed them to make nearly perfect replicas of classic movie posters (and in some cases making a stone litho version of a poster that was not originally a stone litho!). They were printed in exactly the same way the posters were originally printed (re-creating them down to the finest detail within the art, and even including the tiny writing from the bottom of the poster). These posters were printed between 1997 and 2003, and were NOT printed when the movies were originally released. Each has super high quality reproduction on quality paper and most measure 27" x 41" (a very few measure smaller and those are clearly noted). (Learn More). IMPORTANT! Note that the S2 Art Group also had a lower quality 24" x 36" series of one-sheet re-creations that retailed for $49 each, but are NOT stone lithographs. The re-creation offered here one of the high quality re-creations this company did, and is a true stone lithograph. It will look incredible on the new owner's wall, and it will sell for a fraction of the cost of the first release poster with the same image. Condition: fair to good. The person who owned this poster had the three sections taped together so that they overlapped. This has resulted in a 1/2" of discolored sticky area at the top edge of the bottom two pieces. But since the pieces were designed to overlap (just as original 1930s three-sheets did), this discolored sticky area is solely in the part that is not displayed. The new owner could have the three sections taped or glued back together just they are, or they could have a restorer repair the damaged area. but one could absolutely display the poster just as it is, because, if you look at our image, you can see that the the areas described above do not show when the three sections are overlapped. Also please note that there is a color differential between the three sections. This is in the printing, and it is how the poster was created. We don't know why this is, but the past examples of this recreation three-sheet have had the exact same issue. Our digital image of the poster DOES accurately reflect the colors of the poster, so please bear this in mind before you bid. Please do not bid on this poster unless you can accept all of the above.
