THE NEW YORK TIMES, May 2, 1941 

* Original "Citizen Kane" review
* Movie premiere advertisement


An inside page has the review by the Times of what is considered by many the greatest film all time, Citizen Kane. The review is lengthier than most, and begins: "Within this withering spotlight as no other film has ever been before, Orson Welles's 'Citizen Kane' had its world premiere at the Palace last evening...". The review includes a photo of "Orson Wells, in 'Citizen Kane' ", and also on the same page is an advertisement for the film playing at the Palace Theater (see photos).

Complete in 44 pages, 15 1/2 by 21 inches, rag edition, minor spine wear, otherwise in great condition.
