This item:  A PRIME COLLECTABLE  An extremely rare set 6 file photocopy Call Sheets for this great cult movie. The sheets are 6, 12, 13, 19, 22, 23 with dates ranging from October 24,25,26 1972 (sheet 6 covered 3 days) to 5th November, 1972. Call Sheets were issued to all relevant actors and crew for the day they were working. The sheets are a mine of insightful information for the day's shoot containing information such as the location of the day, route for the journey, parking, catering details, facilities, relevant notes (for example on the actual site:  'The Wicker Man is erected on the cliffs at Burrow Head. ALL MEMBERS OF THE UNIT should bear in mind that the grass on the edge of the cliffs is slippery - please do not venture too near. If possible wear rubber soled shoes....'.) and other fascinating detail. The sheets also name the actor / character shooting that day and what time they leave the hotel and are to be at the location; stand-ins are mentioned as well as props required for that day's filming. Items for this movie are very rare and these photocopy Call Sheets came from a resident whose house was used for the filming (hence are contemporary pieces) as attested to by Allan Brown author of 'Inside the Wicker Man' book and from whom I obtained these pieces.. The sheets are generally a couple of pages and a couple also have line drawn diagrams of shooting sites as partly shown in the photos. A terrific collection for the collector and the kind of pieces never to be seen again. (Not all pages shown here.) RARE
