Without Grandpa's labor, John is forced to hire a mill hand, who proves clumsy and incompetent.

NO RETURNS. All Sales Are Final
All of the scripts that I own are original not reproductions or fakes. Some 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 given to the cast and crew members during filming, and used at the time of production. Each film/television project has a different total number of scripts that are issued.
An original movie or television script has a lot of character in the item itself and every one of them is different in some way or another. For example, all finished scripts begin as a First Draft Screenplay then through time the screenplay is edited or Revised into the Final Version of the Shooting Script. Any changes made to the screenplay during production are known as revisions. These revision pages are usually a different color like blue or pink and inserted into the Final Scripts that were issued to the cast and crew. Sometimes new writers are even brought in by the producers during the early stages for whatever reason to revise and make changes to the original script or come in with their own story ideas. Because of this a First Draft Screenplay can even go through multiple title changes on its way to becoming a Final Script. There is usually only one script given to each cast or crew member during
production. Some crew and cast will make changes or add notes to their script copies as well.
All these changes or revisions make original movie scripts very desirable because of how unique they are at various stages in the writing/editing/production process.
