THE THING (1982) - Hand-Drawn Michael G. Ploog MacReady Storyboard - A MacReady storyboard hand-drawn by production illustrator Michael G. Ploog for the production of John Carpenter's The Thing.

Rendered in graphite and signed by Ploog on drawing paper with a printed black border,

this storyboard of MacReady swigging whiskey and annotated "The noises are louder - The [sic] a bang on the door" originated directly from Ploog. It exhibits discoloration and three punched holes. Dimensions: 8.5" x 11" (21.75 cm x 28 cm)

Sold without copyright; see notice in the Buyer's Guide.
