An important archive of four significantly different scripts for the landmark and iconic 1933 film *King Kong*, tracing the evolution of the screenplay from conception to execution. Included is the First Draft by mystery writer Edgar Wallace entitled *The Beast*, dated January 5, 1932, completed shortly before his unexpected death; two further drafts by veteran screenwriter James Ashmore Creelman, *The Eighth Wonder* and *Kong*, dated March 9, and June 16, 1932; and a fourth undated, preproduction script detailing the camera setups for the entire film. Each of the scripts come from the archive of Nan Cochrane, head of the RKO Story Department. Additionally included is the three-part script for *Creation*, an aborted RKO fantasy film whose groundbreaking stop-motion special effects and story directly influenced *King Kong*. Together this is an unparalleled group of scripts tracking the development of one of the most notable and iconic film of all time, and likely not to be duplicated.
