* Opening night for the movie Citizen Kane

This 48 page newspaper has a great page 27 advertisement for the opening night of the movie classic 'Citizen Kane' starring Orson Welles. (see)
Also on the same page are one column headlines that include: "PREMIERE TONIGHT FOR 'CITIZEN KANE'" "Orson Welle's First Picture, in Which He is Also Starred, Will Open at Palace"
Through research of this movie, the release date for this movie in the United States was on May 1, 1941 with the first showing to be at the Palace Theater in New York City. This is exactly what this ad and report says making it a very historic item in movie memorabilia. Only New York City papers would have this.

Other news of the day throughout. Light browning with little margin wear, otherwise in good condition.
