About This Item

[No place: no publisher, 1969. Softcover. Near Fine. Playscript. Quarto. 147 leaves printed rectos only. Bradbound in textured illustrated wrappers. Near fine with a touch of wear at the corners. The unproduced comedy playscript about an unhappy white business man who discovers he has a black son; later adapted into the 1981 film *Carbon Copy* which featured the debut appearance of Denzel Washington. Shapiro was a successful television and film writer who won an Academy Award for the 1959 romantic comedy *Pillow Talk*. Laid in is a letter from the William Morris Agency to Robin Wagner soliciting his thoughts on the script. Wagner worked as scenic designer on Broadway for nearly 50 years, winning three Tony Awards, and six Drama Desk Awards, for work on a wide range of shows including: *Hair*, *Hello Dolly*, *Jesus Christ Superstar*, *A Chorus Line*, *Dreamgirls*, *Angels in America*, *The Producers*, and * Young Frankenstein*. *OCLC* locates two different versions of this screenplay, each considerably shorter than this early (and probably first) draft.
