Sobre este artículo
Burbank, CA: National Broadcasting Company [NBC], 1958. Archive of material for the 1958 television episode, which originally aired on August 13, 1958, on NBC, including one Revised First Draft script, a ten-page typescript treatment, and approximately 70 unnumbered typescript draft leaves. Revised First Draft script, treatment script, and one draft page signed by screenwriter Larry Cohen, with Cohen's manuscript annotations throughout all materials, noting substantive revisions and deletions.
"Kraft Theatre" was a dramatic anthology television series which aired on NBC from 1947 to 1958. In this installment, based on William L.
