Iconic image from the same filmmakers of King Kong. This "kinder gentler" version is loaded with lots of charm. It made a star of Terry Moore and showcased the great classic animation created by the master, Ray Harryhausen.  The film developed a tremendous following throughout the years, largely due to holiday television broadcasts. The story became so popular a remake was produced several years back. In 1933, when King Kong was first release, RKO issued a special upright six-sheet to promote the spectacular colossal nature of King Kong.  In 1949, they topped themselves and invented this unique upright 12-sheet poster size special just for the original 1949 release of Mighty Joe Young. Amazing artwork - The best for this film!!! This poster was found in a collection of rare circus posters, and is the only original known to exist! It is even RARER than the original 1933 King Kong one sheet and three sheet posters as well as being equally as rare as the Kong upright 6 sheet - Quite a find! In fact, it's the only upright 12-sheet poster known to exist on ANY film!  Clearly and obviously one of the greatest posters in the "hobby." The poster towers at approximately 12 feet tall. Mint condition, unbacked. Buying this poster is ECONOMY PROOF! Why waste your money in the stock market?
