Additional Information: Doris Fesette is a very interesting woman. A beautiful girl who figured out pretty early that looks can’t take you all the way, she was a drama school graduate who did all kinds of work to finally get a foothold in Hollywood. A brief flash of fame came and went just as quickly, but she stuck to the profession of choice and worked for a solid period of time in all kinds of mediums. She finally ended up a real estate agent and had a productive and long life. Doris Jane Fessette was born on January 11, 1923, in New York City, New York, to Jay and Della Fessette. Her younger brother Jay Jr. was born on December 4, 1924. The family lived in Plattsburgh, New York after her birth. Her parents separated in the late 1920s, and Doris and Jay lived with their mother afterwards. Her father died in 1930s. Doris grew up in up-state New York, and went to Hollywood “to be discovered” shortly after graduation from high school. When roles didn’t pour in right away, she went to drama school for two years taking speech, acting, fencing, dancing lessons and generally getting some experience in stage craft. To earn money for her education, she worked as a air stewardess for Western Air Lines. It took quite a while for Hollywood to catch on but it finally happened. A talent scout flying to Los Angeles took one look at Doris and promptly rushed her from the airport to Samuel Goldwyn Studios for a screen test. Thus Doris became the first airline glamour-gal to be signed up by the movies. Her first Hollywood wave ended not long after, and she returned to New York once again. This time she had some acting experience, and played in summer stock, did fashion modeling on the runway and on TV. Television commercials came next. It was this work in TV commercials that that landed her back to Hollywood where Doris had “several small parts in big productions and big parts in small productions.” Doris went back and forth between Hollywood and modeling work. She appeared in The Best Years of Our lives (uncredited). Doris’ first credited role was in Edge of Fury, a movie made in 1953 but finally released in 1958. So, she got her first credit only then, when she was 36 years old – but she has been in Hollywood for more than 10 years by then. Doris Fesette died on April 9, 2001, in New York City.

We have one of the largest collections of original movie screenplays in the world. We also carry scripts used in Television, Broadway, Radio and other forms of entertainment. Every script that we own was hand-picked one at a time over the many years of which we have been collecting. All of the scripts that we own are original and we do not buy or sell any reproductions or fakes. A lot of people, new to collecting, are confused about the word "Original." In terms of movie scripts, the term "Original" means that it was used by the production company in the early stages of production or that it was issued out to the cast and crew members during filming, and used at the time of production. Any scripts printed or used in any fashion after filming has completed are known as either a reproduction or a post-production script. These two types of scripts are much less valuable and desirable. All of our scripts are "Original." • An original movie script has a lot of character in the item itself and every one of them is different in some way or another. There is usually only one script given to each crew member during production, however, sometimes they do get more than one. This makes original movie scripts very desirable because of how scarce they are. Any changes made to the screenplay during production are known as revisions and these revision pages are inserted into that one script that was issued out to them. For example, if we are talking about a low-budget film with a small cast and only a few crew members, there are actually only a small number of scripts in existence around the world for that film. This aspect of collecting makes it fun but also difficult because there may be a certain writer or director that you love to collect and there may only be a handful of movie scripts that still exist from that specific film that you are looking for. We have some of the rarest movie scripts in the world. Each film project has a different total number of scripts that are issued. The older a film is you also have to figure in the fact that a lot of the original movie scripts have been thrown out or destroyed over time. We do our best to provide the widest selection of original movie scripts in the world. Whatever actor, producer, director, writer or specific film department you are looking for, we probably have a movie script related to the person you are looking for in some form or fashion. We are constantly adding new movie scripts to our eBay store as often as we can. Please, be patient and really go through all of the listings that we have, and I am sure that you will find something that you love. I know that there are a lot of items to search through, but there is definitely something for you. THIS IS IMPORTANT. When searching for an item in our eBay store, you can either search the "title of the movie" or the "writer's name" from that movie for best results. Furthermore, there is a small box that says "Include Description" which is underneath of the large eBay search box. Once you check off this little box it will allow you to search for a specific word that is contained in any of our listings' actual description. Most of our listings DO NOT include the Actor's name anywhere in the title line or description, so please, do your research beforehand to see what film titles you are looking for from a specific Actor, or Writer, but be sure to search for the "movie title" when looking through our eBay listings. Another search option is to click on my eBay store logo which will bring you to my eBay store page. Here all of the original movie scripts will be categorized by decade, which will help you to narrow down what you are looking for by the year it was made.
