    Fantastic research history breakdown! I'm really glad the studio executives ultimately didn't mind the hair moving on Kong during the test animation. I think it's neat little details like that which make stop motion art really stand out

    Disney's Animal Kingdom pays homage to this illustration in the queue for Expedition Everest. There's an artist's rendition of what the yeti looks like and it's drawn in a very similar style to Willis O'Brien's artwork. The yeti is likewise holding a tree in one hand. No naked woman in the other hand though. Most parents probably wouldn't have approved of that.

    It's good, but you left one thing about the Edgar Wallace draft, John Driscoll was one of the escape prisoners and we learned he was in the French foreign legion and lock up after being accused for striking a superior officer.
