197021968ELos Angeles: Quinn Martin Productions 1970. Original final draft shooting script with color rewrite pages for the feature film The Mephisto Waltz written by Ben Maddow adapted from the novel by Fred M. Stewart co-starring Bradford Dillman and directed by Paul Wendkos. This was Dillman’s working script with his extensive notations throughout. Bradbound in printed studio covers 131 pages dated May 5 1970. With Dillman’s estate stamp which reads “From the Library of Bradford Dillmanâ€. Very good plus copy with a hint of use. Dillman co-starred with Alan Alda Jacqueline Bisset Barbara Parkins William Windom Curd Jurgens and Curt Lowens. The film’s title is taken from the piano work by Franz Liszt and tells the story of a pianist’s Alda failed career as a performing musician who as a result turns to music journalism as a second choice with murder and Satanic themes involved. It is interesting to note that this production was the only big-screen work of veteran television producer Quinn Martin. Bradford Dillman 1930-2018 was one of Hollywood’s best regarded actors among his peers and the public. He was trained at the Actors Studio under Lee Strasberg and knew James Dean in early television.

193522678EBeverly Hills CA 1935. Original Typed Letter Signed by silent film actor / comedian Ben Turpin to celebrity columnist and radio personality Walter Winchell. One page dated March 31 1935. From the text: “Dear Walter Just a note to advise you that the story of my life is about to be completed. It is to be entitled ‘My Cock-eyed Past’ by Ben Turpin as told to Willis Gordon Brown. It is to be submitted for magazine publication first and then with elaborations to be published in book form. At 66 I look back upon a stage career in the ‘gay nineties’ and a movie career starting with ‘Broncho Billy’ Anderson in 1908 both I believe containing interesting anecdotes and quite a bit of humor. Any ‘plugs’ tossed this way will be deeply appreciated by an old-timer. Sincerely Ben Turpinâ€. With creases from folding and a bit of age-toning else fine. Ben Turpin 1869 - 1940 was a great slapstick film and stage comedian with a cross-eyed expression best known for his work with Mack Sennett. Walter Winchell 1897 - 1972 was a famous syndicated newspaper gossip columnist and radio news commentator. He is remembered for his catch phrase “Good evening Mr. and Mrs. America from border to border and coast to coast and all the ships at sea. Let's go to press. unknown books
