1935Best.-Nr. 7180Minneapolis 1935. 7 typewritten pages with manuscript edits and 6 holograph pages recto only in pencil in Wandrei's hand. Light edge wear and a few smudges to the typed pages few corner bends and edge chips to the handwritten pages but generally very good. An interesting manuscript from Donald Wandrei of the Weird Tales Circle being an unfinished screenplay based on his story "The Monster from Nowhere." The tale was first published in Munsey's Argosy November 23 1935 and later was collected in The Eye and the Finger published by Arhkam House in 1944. This script consists of about a dozen scenes mostly detailing the shots scenery and characters with a bit of dialogue and lines for a narrator. The manuscript pages are quite descriptive especially in detailing the nightmarish scene where a dead body floats down the road propelled by an unseen force. This theme of existential horror and the blurring of real and unreal are typical of the Weird Tales genre and it is a shame this screenplay was neither finished nor produced. We find manuscript material from Wandrei to be quite scarce. An excellent item from the Lovecraft circle. . unknown
