Heavy stock pale yellow tinted paper covers, lots of information printed on the front cover,  mimeographed pages, 8.5” x 11”, printed on one side only, pages 2-hole punched at the top, bound with 2 brass brads at the top.
The Continuity is by “Reel” with Seven Reels of side A and B, with pages numbered by "Reel", as follows: Reel 1: 26 pages, Reel 2: 17 pages, Reel 3: 20 pages, Reel 4: 23 pages, Reel 5: 16 pages, Reel 6: 25 pages, and Reel 7: 13 pages, (for a total of 140 pages).
Continuities (Continuity Scripts) were an important part of the film industry in its early days. They were typically created after a film was “in the can”, but before it was released, in order to create a written copy of the film. A good "Continuity” provided a transcription of every shot and scene in detail as it occurred in the finished film, something that could obviously not be known until a film was completed. Continuities were created both for copyright protection and for a record of a film. Many early films easily degenerated, and many others were wiped out to recover their silver. A true continuity script was therefore often the only archived, scene-by-scene, reel-by-reel, record of many early films.
This Continuity / Script is full of wonderful Scenes and Dialogue from such greats as Frank Sinatra, Spencer Tracy, Katharine Hepburn, Fred Astaire, Gene Kelly, The Marx Brothers, Judy Garland, Kathryn Grayson, and many others.
VERY GOOD condition, the covers and the first and last few pages have some edge wear, the two brass brads have oxidized, the first page has some foxing to its margins, overall still bright, clean and unmarked.
