122 mimeographed pages printed on rectos only; apart from the dialogue it includes a title leaf and a three page synopsis with character descriptions, as well as two pages of credits, all on Selznick Releasing Corporation printed forms measuring 14 x 10.5'; the dialogue is identified with its starting and ending place in the final film. The title leaf reads, 'The Third Man/ A Selznick Release/ Prepared by Sidney G. Samuels/ March, 1950.' This is the revised dialogue for the American release, and includes the original and new lines. For various reasons, the American release was 11 minutes shorter than the English one. Released in England in September, 1949 and in America in February, 1950. Bound at the top with brass studs; the title leaf is detached and the second is nearly so, as might be expected. Generally in very good, complete condition. All books described as first editions are first printings unless otherwise noted. All books described as first editions are first printings unless otherwise noted.…
