Important Added Info: Note that this script is from December 20, 1950 and that the writers are not credited on this but that the movie credits Fredric M. Frank, Barre Lyndon and Theodore St. John. Note that this is a very unusual script! It was apparently used by wardrobe people on the set, for it is in a 3-ring binder, and along with the entire script, there is a very large first section of pages which give massive wardrobe notes on the lead characters and also many of the minor characters, and someone glued and taped in many black & white photos (of various sizes), of the characters in their costumes (on the appropriate pages)! Obviously, the wardrobe people used this book for reference while the movie was being made, so that they could insure that the actors were wearing the proper costume during each scene! See our photos of interior pages of this book to see how it was laid out. Condition: very good. Some of the tape that was used to attach photos has darkened. There is a loose page inserted next to the cast listing page, which gives the actors who played the characters (it is interesting to note that on the cast listing page, Stewart's character is listed as "Koko", and someone crossed that out and wrote "Buttons", which ws the final character name!). There is also a loose page inserted into the script which gives the "call sheet" for Tuesday, June 5, 1951. Learn More about condition grades
