The only information included with the photograph was "King Kong set, 1933"
I'm guessing this was taken at RKO.

I was just looking at a similar image.

The King Kong bust that sat in front of Graumann’s Chinese Theater is pictured during the premiere of the film King Kong (1933). It looks like the director/ producer Merian C. Cooper is the person who is posing for this picture. https://onset.shotonwhat.com/gallery...ong/?tag=1544#

At least one source claims that the Kong-on-Wheels appeared at Graumans.

This pic in front of the Fox Pomona Theater supports the idea that Kong (or his miniature) got around.
