Where was the largest green screen used?

The blue screen was developed in the 1930s and were used to create special effects for The Thief of Bagdad. The credit for development of the blue screen is given to Larry Butler, who won the Academy Award for Special Effects for the Thief of Baghdad in 1940. He had invented the blue screen along with the traveling matte (photography and special effects filmmaking to combine two or more image elements into a single, final image) technique in order to achieve the visual effects which were unprecedented in 1940. He was also the first special effects man to have created these effects in Technicolor, which was in its infancy at the time.
