I worked in the production offices of the legendary Italian film producer Dino Delaurentiis during his 1970's reign in New York City.

​

I was in a production meeting when Dino was approving King Kong Posters for his 1976 re-make. I even met the artist John Berkey who created this six sheet poster. Size 79 X 55, that was for release in Italy. You might recognize this American artist's name best known for creating the original poster art for the Star Wars trilogy, also the "Old Elvis Stamp". He was among the pioneering giants in the history of creating science fiction art work. At the end of the meeting as I was packing up the posters Dino let me take this one. I'm sorry I never had the artist and Dino sign it.
