The stage and screenwriter signed this $24.60 check
Check signed: "George Axelrod", 8¼x3. New York, New York. Dated June 29, 1960. Check #158, drawn on the joint account of George and Joan Axelrod at The Chase Manhattan Bank, payable to Eileen Mitchell for $24.60. 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. Cancellation holes. Corners slightly worn. Stray pencil mark on bottom margin. Light surface creases. Otherwise, fine condition.
