If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that this is an authorized reprint (by Turner Entertainment) of the original program that was printed for the actual premiere of King Kong at the famed Grauman's Chinese Theatre in Hollywood, and was distributed solely for the performance on "Friday Evening, March 24, 1933". The cover has a great embossed image of a row of chains over an angled Empire State Building. "Tipped in" (lightly glued at the top) to the inside front cover is a "Programme" page that lists what was shown that evening giving a scene-by-scene breakdown of the orchestral accompaniment to the movie, as well as credits for a "Chorus of Dusky Maidens", with credit for "Costumes by Western Costume Company", indicating the "Dusky Maidens" apparently performed with the orchestra in costume! The interior 20 pages have lots of great black and white photos from the movie and of the men who created it. HOWEVER, THIS IS OF COURSE A REPRINT AND NOT THE ORIGINAL 1933 PROGRAM! Condition: very good. There are some faint smudges and a few tiny scuffs on the covers. Otherwise, the reprint program is in nice condition! Learn More about condition grades
