I’ve finally had a chance to lay this out for a picture. The image side was still in great shape other than a little mildew. Unfortunately, the cardboard backing had become brittle and was deteriorating. No hope of setting it up properly on its posts so I have laid it out on the garage floor. Approx. 7 ft. wide by 10 ft. high.

Wow, that is a pretty amazing piece. Wonder if another even exists?

Can't imagine that many of these exits these days, with the size of this piece. So cool that you've kept in in good condition all these years, ceesethis.

Hmm. Perhaps you could have it re-backed to reinforce the cardboard and make it stand-able again? It's such a cool piece, especially since it is more than 40 years old. KONG is always in style.
