In this print from September 1972, we are transported back to the bustling city of Birmingham. Standing tall against the urban skyline is none other than King Kong, Birminghams legendary monster statue. This iconic sculpture has recently found a new home at Camp Hill's car sales depot, where it will undoubtedly become the centerpiece of attention. The image captures an era when statues like King Kong were not mere decorations but symbols of a city's identity and pride. The intricate details of this magnificent artwork come to life as you gaze upon its towering presence amidst the surrounding buildings. Its imposing figure seems almost alive, ready to leap into action at any moment. This photograph takes us on a journey through time, reminding us of an era when artistry and craftsmanship were highly valued in public spaces.
