KONGTOBER 29 — 1960’s King Kong Banks by AJ Renzi

In the last post, I showed you a smaller version of this bank produced by A.J. Renzi corporation in the 60’s, now here are the big ones…

These large blow mold plastic banks are a massive 17″ tall! These are truly some of my favorite King Kong items–their size makes a King Kong-sized statement from across the room. In addition to these three color versions, I have seen a teal blue colored bank, and a green one is also rumored to exist. If you have one, I want it! Seriously, send me an email. really.

The paint job on the banks vary a bit.

Oddly enough, I think the pink one is my favorite.

“Don’t be alarmed, ladies and gentlemen. Those chains are made of chrome steel.” All month long, I will be showing off King Kong collectibles from my personal collection in a series called KONGTOBER, so if you’re a fan of King Kong and movie monsters, I think you’re going to like what you see.

    Hi. I have the blue one. I got him when I was in 1st grade in 1966. I was checking out on line just to see if it would show any of them! I didn’t know what it would be worth now.

      Whoah! The elusive blue Kong! If you’re ever looking to sell, I might know a guy. 🙂
