Description

Citizen Kane (RKO, 1941). Autographed Half Sheet (22" X 28") Style B.
If you haven't a piece on this most important title, here's your chance to own a style B half sheet signed by Orson Welles, just below his name. It has two sepia toned photo insets, one with Kane at a political rally and another where Kane's cavorting with an entire chorus line! His classic clenched-fist full length drawing dominates the poster, with three separate scenes swirling about his feet. The poster is rolled, uncommon for a poster this size. There are pinholes in the corners and background, some slight edge wear, a small tear in the lower left border, small chips in the top right and left corners, and a small chip in the bottom border. This poster is from the Steve Schapiro collection and was originally sold in a Sotheby's auction on April, 1999. Rolled, Fine/Very Fine.
