[MOPO] FA: 1st edition (1943) of the book that changed Martin Scorsese's life.

Re: [MOPO] Argentina King Kong OS questions

No, just told "forties" but I always figured it would have been post WWII and that they used the R'42 art as their model.  Not sure how well films were being distributed in the war years.  However, as Rich noted, it could have been the '52 as well. --Peter --- On Sat, 3/24/12, Jay Pea wrote:

Re: [MOPO] Argentina King Kong OS questions

To be fair, it does also have the same art as the US R'42.  The buildings are different in the R'56, so it's not that one for sure. --- On Sat, 3/24/12, Richard Halegua Posters + Comic Art wrote: From: Richard Halegua Posters + Comic Art Subject: Re: [MOPO] Argentina King Kong OS questions T

Re: [MOPO] Argentina King Kong OS questions

What a nice poster, Peter. Were you told when, in the 1940's, it was possibly issued? Checking on imdb, there is no first release or later re-release years listed for Argentina. --- On Sat, 3/24/12, P Molitor wrote: From: P Molitor Subject: Re: [MOPO] Argentina King Kong OS questions To:

The word printed before ENTERPRISE FILMS is "Presenta." So that must be the local distributor that handled the later re-release of the film. On the ebay ad, there arent even any dimensions given for that poster. It's Looking more and more like someone got taken here. What I cant figure out is wh

I just hope that someone didnt get taken for 1200.00, considering that the ebay poster is missing the credits that the legitimate reissue should have in the lower portion of the poster. -kerry On Sat, Mar 24, 2012 at 8:50 AM, Doug Taylor wrote: > This poster just sold on ebay: > > > > http://

Re: [MOPO] Argentina King Kong OS questions

The one sheet from Argentina that's said to be original says that the production company is "Enterprise Films", not RKO---maybe I'm out of the loop, but I've never heard of Enterprise Films. It would lead me to believe even the "original" poster is probably a 40's re-release. As for the one

Re: [MOPO] Argentina King Kong OS questions

The actual artwork itself on both of these posters is identical. What strikes me is that for a supposed 1st release poster (the ebay copy), there are no production credits at the bottom (or anywhere else) and no RKO logo. The second version has production credits at the bottom, but then is missi
