This stunning choice lobby card is from RKO's 1956 theatrical re-release of the film,
which was one of several theatrical re-releases of this extremely popular and iconic horror film.   This is one of the most popular of the re-release lobby cards due to the superior artwork, colors and the fantastic border art of Kong climbing up the side of the card and of course the Best looby card scene with a stunning close-up of Kong holding Fay Wray in the tree. .
This card is Very scarce and has only appeared on the market a few times over the past 15 or 20 years.   And most of those have been in much inferior condition.    This is the Best condition one we have ever seen

This particular lobby card scene only appeared in
the 1933 lobby card set and the 1956 re-release set.  The 1933 lobby card has sold for over ,000!  And this 1956 theatrical re-release lobby card is just as Gorgeous as the 1933 card.
