This print is a modified version of the drawing that George did in the front of my copy of "The Making of King Kong." The page was subsequently signed by Fay Wray, Linwood Dunn, Zoe Porter, Archie Marchek, Orville Goldner, and Mario Larrinaga, all of whom liked of the drawing and wanted him to do sketches in their books. Ever since then, he has always done sketches with his autographs.

For this print, I removed the personal items (to Doug, for example) to make it more appealing to people who aren't named Doug. It is 8 x 10, printed on glossy photo weight paper, frameable, numbered, and only available as part of this Deluxe Collectors Edition offer.
