Description: Script Dated: May 11, 1941 -Description- This is an original Helen Hayes Theatre radio script from a 1941 Radio Play titled, "Dark Victory." This radio play was adapted from the 1939 motion picture starring Bette Davis and Humphrey Bogart. This radio script has Helen Hayes starring as the main character "Julie Traherne." It is 32 pages long. Some of the pages have pencil markings on them. The script was professionally bound with a thin hardcover to preserve it over the years, the cover is very delicate and fragile. As you can see in the pictures above this is the actual radio script used for the broadcast and is possibly one of a kind. This script is in good overall condition. Please view all of the pictures above carefully. Furthermore, The Helen Hayes Theatre opened September 29, 1940 and spanned from 1940-1941. The show starred Helen Hayes in Plays which gave her full opportunity to portray characters she always wanted to play. Dramatic material was drawn from originals, motion pictures, stage plays, magazine stories and best sellers. December 28, 1941: Lipton Tea dropped their sponsorship of the program The Helen Hayes Theater as it prepared for shortages in tea imports from India. The show on CBS was referred to as the first casualty of World War II. The Helen Hayes Theater was a drama anthology that lasted for less than a year. The Lipton Tea Series became the show's longest, and also best, forum. Helen Hayes herself supervised the production of the series. She even appeared on a commercial for the tea. Nevertheless, just weeks after Pearl Harbor was bombed, Lipton Tea announced that it would stop sponsoring the show due to tea shortages that they were expecting to happen during those times. -Helen Hayes Info- Helen Hayes MacArthur (October 10, 1900 – March 17, 1993) was an American actress whose career spanned almost 80 years.

We have one of the largest collections of original movie screenplays in the world. We also carry scripts used in Television, Broadway, Radio and other forms of entertainment. Every script that we own was hand-picked one at a time over the many years of which we have been collecting. All of the scripts that we own are original and we do not buy or sell any reproductions or fakes. A lot of people, new to collecting, are confused about the word "Original." In terms of movie scripts, the term "Original" means that it was used by the production company in the early stages of production or that it was issued out to the cast and crew members during filming, and used at the time of production. Any scripts printed or used in any fashion after filming has completed are known as either a reproduction or a post-production script. These two types of scripts are much less valuable and desirable. All of our scripts are "Original." • An original movie script has a lot of character in the item itself and every one of them is different in some way or another. There is usually only one script given to each crew member during production, however, sometimes they do get more than one. This makes original movie scripts very desirable because of how scarce they are. Any changes made to the screenplay during production are known as revisions and these revision pages are inserted into that one script that was issued out to them. For example, if we are talking about a low-budget film with a small cast and only a few crew members, there are actually only a small number of scripts in existence around the world for that film. This aspect of collecting makes it fun but also difficult because there may be a certain writer or director that you love to collect and there may only be a handful of movie scripts that still exist from that specific film that you are looking for. We have some of the rarest movie scripts in the world. Each film project has a different total number of scripts that are issued. The older a film is you also have to figure in the fact that a lot of the original movie scripts have been thrown out or destroyed over time. We do our best to provide the widest selection of original movie scripts in the world. Whatever actor, producer, director, writer or specific film department you are looking for, we probably have a movie script related to the person you are looking for in some form or fashion. We are constantly adding new movie scripts to our eBay store as often as we can.

I know that there are a lot of items to search through, but there is definitely something for you. THIS IS IMPORTANT. When searching for an item in our eBay store, you can either search the "title of the movie" or the "writer's name" from that movie for best results. Furthermore, there is a small box that says "Include Description" which is underneath of the large eBay search box. Once you check off this little box it will allow you to search for a specific word that is contained in any of our listings' actual description. Most of our listings DO NOT include the Actor's name anywhere in the title line or description, so please, do your research beforehand to see what film titles you are looking for from a specific Actor, or Writer, but be sure to search for the "movie title" when looking through our eBay listings. Another search option is to click on my eBay store logo which will bring you to my eBay store page.
