An Undated (probably late 1940s or early 1950s) Re-release Vintage Theatrical Folded Danish Movie Poster (measures 24 1/4" x 33 1/4") (Learn More) King Kong, the classic 1933 Merian C. Cooper & Ernest B. 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.. But all three magnified! Raging.. Roaring.. Crushing.. Killing.."; "Strangest story ever conceived by man!"; "Out-leaping the maddest imaginings! Out-thrilling the wildest thrills!"; "See the living, fighting monsters of Creation's dawn rediscovered in the world today!"; "See the death-fight between giant ape and prehistoric dinosaur... the most amazing combat since the world began!"; "See the ape as big as a battleship wrecking New York!"; "Unique..!

Cooper"; based on the story by Edgar Wallace, with incredible special effects by Willis O'Brien) starring Fay Wray, Robert Armstrong (as Carl Denham), Bruce Cabot, Frank Reicher, and Sam Hardy 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 is undated, but we believe it to be from 1950s Danish re-release. Note that the artist drew Fay Wray with one of her breasts having popped out of her dress, a scene that definitely does NOT appear anywhere in the movie (or on any other poster we are aware of!). Also note that this poster was folded at one time but has been laying flat for a long time and will be sent rolled in a tube. Condition: good. Some collector did not like the Danish title ("ALLE TIDERS GYSER") that was printed in Kong's upper chest and lower arm, and they blacked over that area with either paint or a marker (it bleeds through to the back, so we would think it is likely a marker). We don't know if it is possible to remove the marker, but certainly, a restorer could restore that area with paint restoration. Please do not bid on this poster unless you can accept this significant defect, or are willing to pay to have the poster properly restored. Learn More about condition grades
