Date Sold 10/29/2009Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. A 1970 Re-Release Vintage Theatrical Linenbacked Italian Locandina Movie Poster (measures 13" x 27 3/4") (Learn More) Konga, the 1961 John Lemont English/U.S. London England rampaging gorilla ape horror science fiction (sci-fi) thriller ("Not since 'King Kong' ...has the screen exploded with such mighty fury and spectacle!"; "Not since 'King Kong' ...has the screen thundered to such mighty excitement!"; "in Color and SpectaMation") starring Michael Gough, Margo Johns, Jess Conrad, Claire Gordon, Jack Watson, and Paul Stockman (in the title role as Konga). Note that the producers of the movie wisely made posters making Konga seem like King Kong, including standing tall over buildings and holding a pretty girl in his hand, but in the movie itself, Konga was a man in an ape suit and not a very convincing one, and people who went into the movie after seeing the posters must have been very confused and disappointed! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that the poster has "PRIMA EDIZIONE ITALIANA 1970" in the bottom left, so it seems possible that this movie was not first released in Italy until 1970. If anyone knows if this is the first release or whether it was released earlier in Italy, please e-mail us and we will post it here. Condition: very good. The poster had minor wear on the foldlines and some tiny scuffs in the title. There were some pinholes around the edges. Overall, the poster was in very good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was nicely backed, and displays well! Learn More about condition grades
