King Kong at Yosemite’s Half-dome [1936] print / poster –multiple sizes–
$9.00 – $17.00
"King Kong at Half Dome", Alternate history made-to-order poster for your personal living space...
Background of this amazing image: What many people don't know, believing what they saw in the one movie that Kong starred in, is that the US government actually cut a deal with Kong, and put him the Federal Witness Protection Program. The ape we saw fall, apparently shot up by the biplanes, from the Empire State Building in 1933, was actually a stuffed dummy. The real Kong was hiding inside the building, and once the police had cleared the streets, he was secreted to a train and transported to the great western wilderness of Yosemite and around. For a handful of years, on occasion, as is documented in this photochrome, he would be seen by a tourist or two, typically very briefly and in most instances, he would disappear before the startled visitor could get their cameras set up for a shot. In any case, in our investigation of this rare phenomenon, we could not find evidence of any sightings later than 1939, so we have to assume that either Kong passed quietly or he became frustrated with the increasing number of visitors to Yosemite and retreated to spend the remainder of his days pining for the peaks of Skull Island in quieter environs. This one-of-a-kind Kong print will look great in your living space and make for scintillating conversation! Custom printed when you place your order; sorry, no returns or exchanges accepted on custom prints. 8 x 10" ships in a stiff flat, larger sizes in a sturdy kraft tube.
