Book Description
[Los Angeles]: Twentieth Century-Fox Television, 25 July 1975.. [1],112 leaves. Quarto. Mimeographed typescript, printed on rectos only. Bradbound in printed studio wrappers. Title hand-lettered on spine, faint dust-soiling to wrappers, small spot of fore-edge of a few leaves, but very good. An unspecified, but pre-production draft of this original television Sherlock Holmes pastiche. The October 1976 release starred Roger Moore as Holmes, John Huston as Moriarty, Patrick Macnee as Watson, and Charlotte Rampling as Irene Adler, under the direction of Boris Sagal. While a novelization was published as a paperback original in 1976, the original teleplay was not published at the time. It was nominated for an Edgar Allen Poe Award, and if only by virtue of the stand-out cast, this addition to the Holmes adaptation canon deserves scrutiny. Denoted copy #23 of this script on the title- leaf.
