Title
America's Witness for Christ: Script of the 1937 Hill Cumorah Pageant [Copy A]
Description
This item is a paper photocopy of the 1937 Script of the Hill Cumorah Pageant titled "America's Witness for Christ," written by H. Wayne Driggs. The original script was typewritten and heavily annotated for sounds and music direction. This includes which records to play during each part of the Pageant and timing for other sound effects. The records are noted as belonging to "Victor" for music records and "Gennett" for sound effects records. It is not recorded who annotated the script. The script is 24 pages long on single sided pages. The photocopy is in good condition, with some minor wear on the edges and no noticeable tears. Digital Preservation Note: Optical character recognition (OCR) was used to make the PDF text-searchable, but the scan is not perfect, and it does not capture the script's handwritten notes. Copyright Note: After consulting with the LDS Church History Department about the script's copyright/intellectual property status, we determined that the PDF of the script cannot be made public here as of October 2022. For those interested in consulting the script, please see the following collection at the Church History Department in Salt Lake City. Argetsinger, Gerald Scott, 1946-.
