Description

Citizen Kane (RKO, 1941). Half Sheet (22" X 28") Style B.
Standing as a pinnacle of movie making history, Orson Welles' film is a masterpiece of craftsmanship, cinematography, storytelling, and acting. Loved by audiences and critics alike, this is the unforgettable American story of Charles Foster Kane's success as a publisher and failure as a man, tied together by the iconic word "Rosebud." The film won critical acclaim for the supporting cast as well, launching the careers of Joseph Cotten, Everett Sloane, and Agnes Moorehead. This dramatic half sheet has been restored to address a small tear in the right and left edges, and corner creases. Faint stains and smudges in the right side of the field are still apparent, but do not detract at all from the outstanding image. Half sheets from this title are exceptionally rare, and this is the first time we have had the privilege of offering this wonderful Style B, sure to be in high demand with all collectors. Fine+ on Paper.
