Security-First National Bank of Los Angeles check, 6 x 2.75, filled out and signed by Orson Welles, payable to film producer Oscar Dancigers for $1200, August 13, 1957. In fine condition. Oscar Dancigers (1902-1976) and Orson Welles co-produced the unfinished film Don Quixote, which Welles himself was set to narrate and direct. Test footage was filmed as early as 1955, second-unit photography was done as late as 1972, and Welles was working on the film intermittently until his death in 1985. The film was eventually edited by Jesus Franco and released in 1992 to mixed reviews.
