Description

This is a two page production memo from the Star Trek: The Original Series episode 'I, Mudd'.   It is dated April 21, 1967, and is from Bob Justman to Gene Coon. Carbon copies went to Gene Roddenberry, D.C. Fontana, Ed Milkis, Matt Jefferies, Gregg Peters, and Bob Hellstrom.   The content is regarding the revised story outline for 'I, Mudd' by Stephen Kandel and shows that the original story had many differences to the final shooting script (including fencing in the teaser and a trial at the end).   I acquired it some years ago on eBay.   It was originally part of a larger lot (#721) of memos and other papers sold through auction 32 of Profiles In History.
