Cimarron (RKO, 1931). One Sheet (27" X 41.5"). Winner of the Best Picture Oscar for 1931, Cimarron is a sprawling, big budget Western. The film's budget was massive for the day ($1.5 million), and employed over 5,000 extras, 28 cameramen, and hundreds of technicians. RKO also went all out in promoting the film, including this one sheet poster with art by the acclaimed illustrator Frederic C. Madan. Estimate: $20,000 - $40,000.
