Product description

In the high-stakes world of mid-century serial cinema, few images capture the raw energy of the jungle quite like this print. The composition is anchored by a muscular Buster Crabbe clutching a knife, flanked by a determined heroine and a loyal chimpanzee. Threatening the trio from the upper left are snarling lions and a prowling black panther, all rendered in the saturated, painterly style typical of 1950s lithography.

About 1950s film posters

1950s posters brought widescreen epics, sci-fi monsters and the first graphic designs by Saul Bass. Adventure poster art promises motion: chases, explosions and far-flung locations. The original image dates from 1952. Classic Hollywood posters were painted by studio art departments around the stars of the day.

Styling this 1950s movie poster

This 1950s movie poster pairs a vibrant atmosphere with a red palette that is easy to build a room around. The tall format of “King of the Congo” suits narrow walls, hallways and the space beside a doorway; 18×24″ is a versatile middle size. The red palette of “King of the Congo” stands out against warm neutrals and charcoal; finish it with a slim walnut or black frame.
