All items offered are genuine release (usually 1st), old, cinema movie items and so had a 'life' before sale, so unlikely ever to be mint.

Note on images: I am no professional photographer and light sources and reflections may appear on the image that are errors and clearly not on the originals

This item:    An original re-release UK FOH / lobby card set for this giant ape movie noted for being supervised by the great Willis O'Brien (of King Kong fme) and animated by the equally great Ray Harryhaussen; the animation models were sculpted by Marcel Delgardo (who created the original King Kong models) and this original Front of House card shows a Delgardo drawn image of Joe dramatically fighting off four lions. Interestingly, this card, is similar to the 1960s re-release of King Kong where the only image of Kong is also a drawn on, like this and not a still from the movie.  Very Scarce 

Stars:             Terry Moore, Ben Johnson, Robert Armstrong, Frank McHugh.

Size:             8.00 x 10.00 inches approx. 

Condition: (Range from Fine – Very Good – Good – Poor with ++ to - - for further differentiation) :  Very Good ++  -:   no pin-holes;  good corners and edges with a little corner creasong; overall,  very good. (see photos for further detail; feel free to ask for specific detail.)
