Description

Rare signed script from the 'Duke'—"It's hard work without a horse"

Brad-bound original final script for the 1974 action crime film McQ, dated May 12, 1973, 121 pages, 8.5 x 11, signed and inscribed on the title page in black ink, "David—It's hard work without a horse, Duke." Another hand has added "U.S. Marshall" to the front cover, an apparent working title for the film. In very good to fine condition, with a light stain and corner crease to the signed page, and some staining and wear to the covers. The recipient, Dave Sutton, served as special still photographer for the film; Sutton worked alongside John Wayne on a number of the actor's films, including The Shootist, Rooster Cogburn, and Big Jake. Scripts signed by Wayne are rare and quite desirable.
