Something Wicked This Way Comes Original screenplay for the 1983 film
Burbank CA: Walt Disney Pictures 1981. Revised script for the 1983 film. Written for the screen by Ray Bradbury based on his 1962 novel. <br/><br/>After a carnival comes to Green Town the good citizens are compelled to follow their deepest desires caught under the spell of the malevolent Mr. Dark Jonathan Pryce who can grant those desires on one condition: that the grantees will forever join his freak show. <br/><br/>In 1977 Bradbury sold the film rights to his novel to Paramount. He and director Jack Clayton whom Bradbury had previously worked with on Moby Dick produced a completed script. However production never began and the film was eventually put into turnaround. At the time Walt Disney Pictures was concentrating on films with more mature themes in an attempt to break free from their stereotype as an animation and family film studio. After the success of darker children's fantasy pictures by competing studios such as Time Bandits and The Dark Crystal Disney decided to purchase the adaptation's rights and hired Bradbury to produce a new script from scratch. .Set in Greentown Illinois but shot on location in Morrisville and Waterville Vermont. <br/><br/>Gray titled wrappers noted as Revised on the front wrapper marked production No. 0233 dated 8/24/81 with credits for novelist and screenwriter Bradbury.

Warren Lewis director; Herb Perdum screenwriter; Frank Lovejoy starring
Night Beat Nightbeat Original script for the 1951 radio program
New York: National Broadcasting Company NBC 1951. Revised script for the 1951 radio program "Nightbeat" a National Broadcasting Company NBC radio drama series that aired from February 6 1950 to September 25 1952 sponsored by Pabst Blue Ribbon Beer and Wheaties cereal starring Frank Lovejoy. This script for this episode is untitled. <br/><br/>"Nightbeat" came during the competition for audiences between radio and television and at the tail-end of "radio noir" a style of program that aired during the heyday of film noir. Edmond O'Brien "D.O.A." 1950 and several key noirs was slated to be the lead role and his narration coupled with William Rousseau's direction and Larry Marcus' script proved too edgy for NBC executives and potential sponsors. The producers ordered a second audition this time bringing in Frank Lovejoy 1912-1962 who had starred in "The Blue Beetle" radio show in 1940. Lovejoy's reworking of the hard-boiled script added a human element that of a passionate crusading reporter for the Chicago Star who covered the night beat known as "Randy Stone." Stone looked for interesting and strange stories encountering criminals and troubled souls some he was able to help. Lovejoy's grasp and delivery of hard-boiled phrases like "painted little dames with their brassy laughter" gave the show the edge it needed to compete with a burgeoning television audience and an elegant sendoff for radio noir. <br/><br/>The announcer for the program was Don Rickles and supporting performers included Joan Banks William Conrad Paul Frees Peter Leeds Lurene Tuttle and Ben Wright among others. Lovejoy would reprise his role as the tough guy with a heart of gold in "Search in the Night" 1953 an episode of the 1953-1956 television series "Four Star Playhouse."<br/><br/>Noted as PROGRAM NUMBER 57 on the first page dated September 7 1951 5:30-6:00 PM EST with credits for program manager Home Canfield actor Frank Lovejoy producer-director Warren Lewis writer Herb Purdum and others. 32 leaves mimeograph duplication.

Judex Original double weight photograph from the 1916 film
Neuilly-sur-Seine France: Gaumont 1916. Vintage double weight matte finish still photograph from the legendary 1916 silent film serial. With the Gaumont logo at the lower right corner. <br/><br/>The last of Feuillade's three film serial masterpieces preceded by "Fantomas" 1913 and "Les Vampires" 1915 combining elements of both its predecessors. In Judex Latin for "judge" Feuillade furthered his vision of the dark enigmatic anti-hero he introduced with the legendary Fantomas character and utilized Musidora-who played the lead character Irma Vep in "Les Vampires"-as the villainess. Judex was a step forward from the criminal Fantomas however predicting pulp heroes to come such as The Shadow and especially Batman in the US: he was a masterful fighter an expert in disguise and kept his headquarters in the subterranean passages beneath a ruined castle lavishly outfitted with high tech gadgets. Feuillade shot "Judex" in 1914 but the outbreak of World War I delayed release in France until 1916 and wide release until 1917. <br/><br/>Pictured here is Judex cunning and silent in a stunt scene where in he attempts what we suspect will be successful entry into an unsuspecting criminal's car while the vehicle is in motion. <br/><br/>11 x 9 inches.

Fantomas Original double weight still photograph from the 1913 film serial
Neuilly-sur-Seine France: Gaumont 1913. Vintage double weight matte finish photograph from the legendary 1913 silent film serial. Printed onto heavy card stock for use as the equivalent of a modern day lobby card. With the Gaumont logo at the lower right corner. <br/><br/>The first of Feuillade's three film serial masterpieces followed by "Les Vampires" 1915 and "Judex" 1916. Feuillade took the brave task of putting to film Fantomas already wildly popular with European audiences. The character can be seen as an outgrowth of the "hero thief" character Arsene Lupin from turn-of-the-century French fiction. But unlike Lupin Fantomas was completely comfortable killing those who got in his way sadistically and with no small amount of enjoyment. <br/><br/>The scene pictured here shows Jaques Dollon Andre Luguetat at the police station sitting at the center having been framed by Fantomas. The journalist Fandor Georges Melchior standing in for Inspector Juve who is on the lam in disguise as a hobo stands over Dollon as a police inspector sits at a corner desk. Dollon goes on to escape then be captured by Fantomas who murders him cuts off his fingers and throws his body into the river. Fantomas then sews the fingers into a glove and commits further crimes continuing to implicate Dollon who in addition to being innocent is now dead. <br/><br/>11 x 9 inches. Mounted on brown card stock. <br/><br/>Hardy The BFI Companion to Crime p. 125-126. Gaumont unknown books

The Magnificent Ambersons Der Glanz des Hauses Amberson Original poster for the 1942 film
Germany: Peter-Presse / Atlas Films 1966. Original German A1 poster for a 1966 German re-release of the 1942 US film. <br/><br/>Orson Welles' followup to "Citizen Kane" 1941 was utterly different from Kane in style and texture but just as brilliant in its own way. Writer-director Welles does not appear on camera but his voiceover narration superbly sets the stage for the movie's action which fades in valentine fashion on Amberson Mansion the most ostentatious dwelling in all of turn-of-century Indianapolis. Despite the legendarily unsolvable problem of film editor Robert Wise being instructed by the studio-outside Welles' knowledge-to edit away nearly an hour of the film's length it remains a masterpiece of storytelling bringing Tarkington's Pulitzer winning novel to life in high style. <br/><br/>Shipping billed at cost. Item can only be shipped within the US. <br/><br/>23 x 33 inches non-archivally mounted on board. Light rubbing and soil and a few edge nicks and chips. Very Good.
