Item Listing

Manuscript
  • Original movie manuscript of a silent film scenario entitled " Edgar Comedies No. 16...Title: Edgar's Black Magic " by Booth Tarkington
    n.d.
    AMsS, 28 p.

    Signed by the author on the first page among the title. Written in pencil on yellow-orange folio pages. Numerous revisions, additions, and deletions are in the author's hand throughout. [Note from David J. Holmes Autographs : This is probably a draft scenario for a silent movie in the "Edgar Pomeroy" series, produced by Goldwyn Pictures Corporation , 1919-1921. It may be an un-produced script, as there is no description for a production of this title among the twelve "Edgar" films. ]
