Manuskript / Papierantiquität
Draft script for the 1970 film. One of the more notable scripts from character actor and writer Leo Gordon whose Hollywood career began after his dishonorable discharge during WWll for robbing patrons at a bar. Throughout his 40 years as an actor, art imitated life, as the burly Gordon typically played an outlaw, typecast predominately in Westerns. Peter Collinson fresh off "The Italian Job" was reportedly a brute force in addition to excruciating temperatures on a set that was 200 miles outside of Istanbul. The pairing of the leads was lauded as Charles Bronson was at the height of European fame alongside a well-established Tony Curtis. Set in 1922 Greco-Turkish War, shot on location in Turkey. Blue titled wrappers. Title page present, with credits for Leo V. Gordon. 129 leaves, with last page of text numbered 129. Xerographically reproduced. Pages Near Fine, wrapper Very Good plus, bound internally with three gold brads.
