(via Anonymous Works: King Kong) Circa 1933 folk art carved figure of King Kong. In a pose reminiscent of Kong’s fight with the airplanes in the movie’s climax, this figure was possibly used as a movie theater trade stimulator. Beautifully worked surface on this extremely rare figure. Repairs to arm, finger and foot.
