One Sheet (27" x 41"); Style A ;
Very Fine- on Linen
RKO, 1941

This "Style A" one sheet poster is from "Citizen Kane," one of the most significant films in American cinema, which was co-written, directed by, and stars Orson Welles. The poster features Welles in the role of "Charles Foster Kane" alongside members of Welles' Mercury Theatre Players. This example has been professionally linen-backed and received expert, intermittent touch-ups to the folds, addressing general wear. There is slightly more touch-up work along the upper section of the vertical fold. The borders and the upper portion of the white field have been airbrushed to repair pinholes, a corner chip, and a few edge tears. The restoration has been expertly executed, making this poster a cornerstone for any advanced collection of classic films.

After 25-year-old Orson Welles produced, directed, and starred in "Citizen Kane," cinema was never the same. The film 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.
