Broderick Crawford's Best Actor Oscar from ''All The King's Men'', the 1949 drama that also won Best Picture and Best Supporting Actress. Crawford delivered his Academy Award-winning performance as Willie Stark, a politician who is gradually corrupted. Interestingly, Crawford was up against John Wayne for his role in ''Sands of Iwo Jima'' - Wayne had declined the role of Stark, which he felt was unpatriotic. Oscar statue is the iconic knight figure, standing upon a film reel and made of solid metal, mounted to a metal base. Affixed to the front of the base is a plaque engraved, ''Academy First Award / To / Broderick Crawford / For His Performance In / 'ALL THE KING's MEN'''. Statue measures 13.25'' in total height. Base diameter measures 5''. Weighs 6 pounds, 1 ounce. Heavy rubbing to finish of statue and base, and a subtle dent to the bottom rim of the base. Statue is also slightly raised off and rotates on its base. Extra wear to the finish on statue's lip, nose and chest on the left side. In good condition.
