Our expert's notes

A cable controlled Kala head from Hugh Hudson’s drama Greystoke: The Legend of Tarzan, Lord of the Apes. This mechanical head of Kala, the female ape, was used for close-ups during production. The head is made of a fiberglass underskull, attached foam latex face skin, and cable controls. The face features hand-punched fur, lifelike paint detail, and cable controlled articulating lips.
The head is mounted on a wooden stand and displays some wear due to production use and age, such as dried and missing foam. Overall the head remains in delicate condition. Dimensions: 8” x 8” x 13” (20 cm x 20 cm x 33 cm)
