  • Short Summary

    Wrestling match between 'King Kong' and Tony Slano - looks staged, very entertaining!

  • Description

    Full title reads: "1936 Style. Bearded King Kong defeats Tony Slano in all-in wrestling bout at St. Nicholas Ring, New York".

    New York City, United States of America (USA).

    Various shots of ring where wrestling match between wrestlers, 'King Kong' and Slano is taking place. 'King Kong' (bald head, black beard) is a real performer - he knows just how to play the crowd! He staggers and twists his face in pain - very staged and melodramatic.

    Note: sound track missing.

    For search purposes also use Tony Siano.
