Half Sheet (22" x 28"); Style B
Very Fine Rolled
RKO, 1941

This stunning "Style B" half sheet features Orson Welles as Charles Foster Kane from his most famous film. This particular example was never folded and includes professional airbrushing only along the borders. There is a small area of tiny stains located between the two scenes on the left, extending into one of the women's faces.

After 25-year-old Orson Welles produced, directed, and starred in Citizen Kane, cinema was never the same. The movie tells the story of a fictional press baron and captivates the audience with its engaging plot and a surprising twist. Moreover, it employs astonishing new visual techniques that have placed it at the top of virtually every 'Greatest Movie' list for decades.

Estimate: $6,000 - 12,000
