Vintage original Revised script from the popular 1970's alien-themed sci-fi drama television series, PROJECT U.F.O., created by Harold Jack Bloom. It is from Season 2, Episode 11, which was entitled The Scoutmaster Incident, in which a scoutmaster witnesses a UFO while out camping with his troop in the wilderness of Mississippi. Captain Ben Ryan (Edward Winter) and Staff Sgt. Harry Fritz (Caskey Swaim) fly south to the Magnolia State to investigate for Project Blue Book and discover another witness.
Written by Albert Aley and George F. Slavin, this vintage original script was Revised on 9/25/78. It consists of 59 pages on various colored paper stocks (to indicate the various revision) that have been 3-hole punched and bound with two brass brads without any covers. We believe this script belonged to cast member Steve Patrick, who portrayed "Chis Sherwood," as all of that characters lines have handwritten brackets in pencil around his lines of dialogue and where it references his character's name. This script is incomplete, as it is missing the title page and also ends on page 58A with the word "(continued)" on the bottom of that page. It is in overall fine- condition with a stain on the top right corner of the first six pages and signs of wear on the corners; a small crease on the top right corner of the last several pages; and signs of wear to the last page present (page 58A).
Project U.F.O. is an American television series which ran on NBS from 1978 to 1979. Running for two seasons of 13 episodes each, the show was based loosely on the real-life Project Blue Book. The show was created by Jack Webb, who pored through Air Force files looking for episode ideas. The show was a production of Mark VII Limited in association with Worldvision Enterprises, now CBS Television Distribution, and was Webb's last weekly series produced before his death. It was also one of the rare times that Webb did not produce a series with Universal Television or Warner Bros. Television; Webb collaborated with Universal for every series he made following his departure from Warner Bros., who had named him the president of its television division in the 1960s.
