Artwork is dated 13 March [1977] and signed "Scotty," likely by Elliot Scott, uncredited on Alien, but who served as Production Designer for two of the Indiana Jones films. Rendered in pen and marker, artwork is Near Fine. From the collection of former 20th Century Fox executive Peter Beale, whose COA accompanies the lot.COA from Heritage Auctions.
