The Monkees: Original Television Pilot Script
The Monkees: Original Television Pilot Script Signed by The Band! A tremendously significant memento in relation to the now storied history of The Monkees, offered here is an original pilot script for the group's first television show. Dated August 17, 1965, the cover for this 37-page script simply reads "The Monkeys - A Half Hour of Comedy". In addition, the cover of the script has been beautifully hand signed by all four members -- Michael Nesmith, David Jones, Peter Tork, and Micky Dolenz -- in black felt tip marker. Making note of the script's erroneous spelling of the band's name, Tork has added, "The Monkeys" along with his name, crossing out the "y" and adding an additional "e". Some light toning and a fold impression in the far left side of the cover, otherwise in fine condition. Accompanied by letter from Jerry Yester, the gentleman who originally auditioned for a role in the episode and acquired the script, and who went on to join the Lovin' Spoonful after losing the Monkees gig. Very, very cool! From The Tom Fontaine Music Memorabilia Collection. Important notice: Heritage usually auctions material at the rate of 200-250 lots per hour. On some occasions eBay Live bid software or the Internet may not be able to keep up with the pace of the auction. We recommend placing a realistic absentee bid now as insurance to avoid disappointment. Occasionally the auctioneer may eliminate or reject an eBay Live bid, and the auctioneer may also reopen a lot after the close of the eBay live bidding (usually because we missed an audience bid), and may reject your bid even if it shows you as the winning bidder. By bidding via eBay Live, you agree that Heritage may award the lot to another bidder at its sole discretion under the circumstances described above or any other reasonable circumstances. Since eBay bids are not shown to us until we open the lot on the floor, we treat those bids just like floor bids. In most cases the floor responds before the eBay bid is presented to us, due to Internet lag time, so for consistency we have made it a policy that floor bids are always considered first over tie eBay live bids. Also please note that all Heritage lots purchased through eBay Live carry a 20% Buyer's Premium. Please make sure you read the Terms and Conditions before you bid.
