ROCK ‘N’ ROLL HIGH SCHOOL (Oct 5, 1978) Final Draft script by Richard Whitley and Russ Dvonch

Los Angeles: New World Productions, Inc., 1978. Vintage original film script, 11 x 8.5″ (28 x 22 cm.), green untitled wrappers. 102 leaves, with last page of text numbered 101. Xerographic duplication, rectos only. Near fine, brad-bound. This script belonged to actor Dick Miller, with his holograph pencil and ink annotations to a few pages. Accompanying the script is a cast list and contact sheet for the film.

A cult classic about rock music-addicted high school students who, with the help of The Ramones, take control of their school from the teachers and principal. Interestingly, there is no direct reference to The Ramones in the script — the band that the film’s character Riff Randall is obsessed with was left blank, so that the name of whichever group New World got to appear in the film could be inserted.
