Important Added Info: Note that this original jigsaw puzzle is from 1933. It was enclosed in a printed envelope (it is advertised in the 1933 pressbook, and we wonder if it was sent to theater owners as a sample, or perhaps it was distributed in some other way). The puzzle is rare, and finding it with the original printed envelope is even more rare! Some people have taken this puzzle and glued it to a backing board so that it can be displayed on the wall (and I certainly can understand why they would do that), but because people did this, it makes finding the puzzle in its original condition even more difficult. Condition: good. When this puzzle was found, two of the pieces were missing. They are small pieces in the lower right. The person who owned this puzzle had a complete puzzle as well, so he had two replacement pieces made that are a wonderful match for the originals! We have photographed the entire back of the puzzle, so you can easily see which two pieces are the replacement pieces, because they are a slightly different color on the back. But from the front of the puzzle, they work really well, because I doubt people would realize that they were replacement pieces from looking at the front! This is a really cool (and rare) original 1933 King Kong item that can be framed and enjoyed, but please do not bid on it unless you can accept that two minor pieces have been replaced.
