1174 drawn on the account of George and Joan Axelrod at the Chase Manhattan Bank.
Payable to Frederick-Thomas Associates for the amount of $37.08. Screenwriter George
Axelrod (1922-2003) was successful on Broadway before turning his stage hit
The Seven Year Itch (1955) into a movie. He continued to write for both stage
and screen, producing the Broadway hit Will Success Spoil Rock Hunter?
(1955-1956) and earning an Oscar nomination for his screen adaptation of
Breakfast at Tiffany's (1961). More film successes followed, including The
Manchurian Candidate (1962) and The Fourth Protocol (1987). During the late
1950s and early 1960s, Axelrod was one of the highest paid writers in
Hollywood. Many years after he retired as a screenwriter, Axelrod makes his
screen debut with his only acting credit: he had a small part in The Next Best
Thing (2000), starring Madonna and Rupert Everett. Fold in center. Corners slightly
worn. Cancellation holes. Ink stamps. Otherwise, fine condition.
