A miniature gorilla mock-up piece and City of Zinj set dec piece from Frank Marshall's 1995 sci-fi film Congo. Miniature sets for the Lost City of Zinj were constructed during the production of the film. The mock-up gorilla miniature is made of foam Latex and has been painted brown and sculpted into a sitting position. The mock-up remains incomplete in terms of paint and production as the excess latex has not been trimmed and a peg is attached to the back of the gorilla. The miniature head is a production-made piece made of resin that has been painted yellow, highlighting the cracks lined across the face to resemble stone. The set shows minor signs of wear from age, but both remain in good overall condition. Dimensions: (largest) 8" x 5" x 3 3/4" (20 cm x 13 cm x 9 1/2 cm); (smallest) 2 3/4" x 2" x 1 1/2" (7 cm x 5 cm x 4 cm)

Estimate: $400 - 600
