'Director Ridley Scott’s personal script from Alien with notations, edits and numerous hand-drawn “Ridleygrams”. (TCF, 1979) This is Academy Award-winning director Ridley Scott’s 8.5 x 11 in. 127+ multi-color page, personal copy of the script for his breakthrough Sci-Fi/Horror film Alien. Bound in a 10.5 x 12 x 2.5 in. blue, 2-ring binder with 6.5 x 2.75 in. “ALIEN” title card affixed to the cover and 7 x 1.25 in. winged emblem sticker below it. The interior title page is printed with, “ALIEN / Revised Final Draft by Walter Hill and David Giler / Based on a screenplay by Dan O’Bannon / Story by Dan O’Bannon and Ronald Shusett / June 1978” and production company address. The 2nd page features the printed inspirational quotes, “Science fiction plucks from within us our deepest fears and hopes then shows them to us in rough disguise: the monster and the rocket. W. H. Auden” and, “We live, as we dream --- alone. Joseph Conrad”. A majority of script pages exhibit detailed production notes, script edits, strikethrough lines and passages – even a coffee cup ring stain from presumably long hours spent poring over scenes. In addition, 30 pages feature a number of remarkable sketches by Ridley Scott, himself. Educated at the Royal College of Art in England, the director is an accomplished visual artist. His spontaneous and visionary sketches and diagrams have become known as “Ridleygrams”. These Ridleygrams depict some memorable images and scenes from the resulting film, including: a sequence showing details of astronauts waking up from suspended animation, brilliant starscapes, interior Nostromo images, the discovery of the derelict alien ship on planet “LV-426”, a rudimentary sketch of the iconic “Space Jockey” and even the memorable drinking bird that was realized as an insert shot in the ultimate film. Includes 23 pages of shooting schedule dated, “28.6.78”. Last 2 pages of this schedule also include Ridleygrams of a spaceship on the verso. The binder remains in good condition and the content is in production-used very good condition. Comes with an LOA from 1st assistant editor, Leslie Healey, who rescued this script from the cutting room floor after Scott discarded it at the end of production. A profound, one-of-a kind piece of the Alien legacy, originating from one of the greatest cinematic minds of the past 30 years. '

'Vintage original “Crewman” sketch by Moebius for Alien. (TCF, 1979) In Ridley Scott’s incredible Alien universe, supporting graphic artists were majorly responsible for bringing Scott’s futuristic vision to life. Aside from H.R.
