    TOM SAWYER (Jul 20, 1930) First white script adapted from Mark Twain
    Screenplay by Sam Wintz, Grover Jones, William Slavens McNutt. Adapted from the novel by Mark Twain. [Hollywood: Paramount Pictures], July 20, 1930. Vintage original film script, folio, self-wrappers, 143 leaves, printed on rectos only. Mimeograph, pages NEAR FINE, wrapper VERY GOOD, detached at punch holes, with closed tears and light soiling, side with three staples. Housed in a custom quarter leather clamshell box.
    The third film adaptation of
    Tom Sawyer
    — preceded by a silent short in 1907 and a silent feature in 1917 — and the very first talking film adaption of any of Mark Twain’s works.
    As was the practice at Paramount, the script has an odd pagination, as it is divided up into nine alphabetical sequences. It is complete, with the following pagination: [title page], [cast list], A-1 – A-37; B -1 – B-21; C-1 – C-12; D-1 – D-19; E-1 – E-15; F-1 – F-7; G-1 – G-9; H-1 – H-15; J-1 – J-6.
