Description

King Kong (1933), jigsaw puzzle, US


Unframed: 22 x 11 in. (56 x 28 cm)

Framed: 28 1/8 x 17 3/4 in. (71.3 x 43.7 cm)


This puzzle from RKO Radio Pictures for the landmark 1993 film King Kong was advertised in the US pressbook. It was originally enclosed in a printed envelope, which is in a plastic sleeve attached to the reverse of the frame.


These original puzzles from 1933 do not surface very often.


A perfect blend of adventure, science fiction, and horror, King Kong is the ultimate monster movie. Willis O'Brien's use of stop-motion effects was ground breaking for the time, and remains legendary. The film blew audiences away and broke all previous box office records. 

From the Andy Johnson Collection, purchased in the 1990s.
