Description

Citizen Kane (RKO, R-1957). Polish One Sheet (24" X 34").
Orson Welles co-wrote, directed, produced, and starred in this epic tale based lightly on the life of newspaper tycoon William Randolph Hearst. Welles's masterpiece featured many of the Mercury Theatre Players that he had worked with on stage and radio, including Joseph Cotten, Everett Sloane, Ray Collins, and others. Paper for this cinematic treasure is highly prized, and we are happy to offer this rare poster, from the first re-release in 1957, with its striking artwork by Henryk Tomaszewski. In excellent condition, the piece shows only edge wear, and small tears in the left and right border with tape on the verso. A very special poster from this top film! Rolled, Very Fine-.
