KING KONG (1933; 1942 re-release). Vintage original 8 x 10 25 x 20 cm. Black-and-white single weight glossy silver gelatin print still photo, USA. Fay Wray, Robert Armstrong, Bruce Cabot, Frank Reicher, Sam Hardy, Noble Johnson, Kong, dir: Merian C. The brilliant, unsurpassed original. No matter the advancements in film making technology, it was the technology, writing, music, photography, lighting, artistry and special effects of 1932 that made this story work — then, and to this day. It has inspired all subsequent film makers and is still magical. A superb re-telling of the Beauty and the Beast -legend. This still has the information printed at the bottom margin for the 1942 RKO re-release of the film. Kong was one of the very few big studio films which would be given several re-releases by its original studio before starting television showings in 1956. There is a crease to the bottom right corner of the still. It must come back in the same condition as it was sent. AUTHENTICATION: My name is Walter Reuben.
