The fruit vendor was a merchant with an apple cart in the streets of New York during the Great Depression.
Biography[]
When Ann Darrow stole one of his apples (because of how hungry she was and didn't have money) the vendor grabbed her and asked angrilly if she was going to pay for the apple until Carl Denham saves Ann by giving the vendor a dollar.
In the 2005 version, when the vendor catches Ann stealing from his cart, Denham saves her by claiming that she dropped a quarter. It is unrevealed if he survived Kong's rampage
