A Man for All Seasons

An original document used in the production of A Man for All Seasons, the 1966 drama directed by Fred Zinnemann.

This is the original final budget for the production comprising of 32 pages bound between front and rear covers of blue card with the front featuring an applied label which features the name of the movie and production company, this further inscribed 'W. FINCH' for production accountant William Finch. The first interior page of the budget is dated 7th April, 1966 and includes estimated filming dates with the remainder of the budget broken down in to various categories with figures for each expense noted, these covering every aspect of the production and totalling $2.25 million, there are various annotations throughout the budget which are hand inscribed in pencil. This is accompanied by further production paperwork to include a unit list, cost summery which is hand signed by Finch, construction costs and a hand inscribed sheet of location notes.

The budget measures 13" x 8" and remains in very good production used condition exhibiting some minor cover wear, accompanying paperwork with edge wear and toning.

An extraordinarily rare example of original production material from this highly regarded picture which was the recipient of six Academy Awards.
