Auction History Result 5b0516 PERRY MASON TV revised draft script January 25, 1962 The Case of the Absent Artist episode! Date Sold 9/26/2023 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Television Script (measures 8 1/2" x 11" [22 x 28 cm], 62 pages) (Learn More) Perry Mason, the 1957 - 1966 Erle Stanley Gardner courtroom legal lawyer attorney mystery crime melodrama television (TV) series starring Raymond Burr (in the title role as Perry Mason), Barbara Hale (as Della Street), William Hopper (as Paul Drake), Ray Collins, and William Talman. Note that Raymond Burr had been "typecast" as a heavy in 1950s movies prior to appearing on this TV show (his most notable performance was in "Rear Window"). Burr thought that his weight might be a factor in that, and he went on a massive diet prior to trying out for this show, and he lost around 100 pounds, and that did the trick, and he was cast as Perry Mason, which was the turning point in his career! Important Added Info: Note that this TV script is from April 19, 1961 (for the episode "January 25, 1962"), and it was written by Erle Stanley Gardner and Robert C. Dennis. The name "Jeremy Hunt" is written on the cover of the script, but we don't know who he is, so this script could have been his personal copy, or his name could have been written there for a different purpose. If anyone knows more about this, please e-mail us and we will post it here. Also note that there are a multitude of different colored revision pages from many different dates (apparently this script was revised over and over, which must have driven the actors crazy!). It also contains a separate shooting schedule and several pages of call sheets. Condition: very good. See our multiple images to get a good sense of the exact condition of this script.
