Important Added Info: Note that we have only auctioned two first release King Kong lobby cards in the past seven years, and neither of those showed special effects as this one does! Also note that we have a scan of both the front and the back of this lobby card, which should greatly help you see what defects it has.

Condition: good to very good. The card had tiny pinholes and smudges in the borders, with water staining across the bottom border. The card's right blank border was trimmed off, and there are a few tiny tears in the right edge of the image. Someone performed restoration to the right border only, without backing the card. They replaced the missing blank border with a 1 1/2" piece of paper that extended over the back of the right edge of the image, so that it is attached securely, and they performed slight restoration to that area, but not to the other border defects. See our images before bidding on this very rare and desirable lobby card.
