Kong: the most marvelous monster

Article Abstract:

Merian Cooper and Ernest Schoedsack's 'King Kong' remains one of the most original and thrilling films ever made. Sequels and remakes never lived up to the 1933 masterpiece, which actually saved RKO Pictures from bankruptcy. Collectibles includes toys, model kits, buttons, posters and recordings.
