One face:
The other face:
Purchased for me, whether or not at my urging I have no memory, presumably sometime around 1968, when I had seen some number of runs of King Kong, which had had no few public-domain prints circulating, on local tv broadcasts...I had seen the film about ten times, at least, by the time I was six years old (in '7o), and have no clear memory of Not having this pillow around. Presumably my mother sewed up a part of it for me, after rough treatment and/or the Cheena River flood (in Fairbanks, Alaska) in 1967 caused it some damage. That such a pillow was mass-produced sometime in the mid-late '60s gives some indication of how much a Very Young audience was taken with KK in those years, if the KK/Gojira film and similar ripoffs and the 1960s cartoon series and other similar ripoffs in that arena didn't make that clear.
Have you had anything Rosebud-esque that has managed to survive a similar passage, so far?
