He is best known for his work on the movies Around the World in 80 Days for which he jointly won an Accademy Award in 1956, Cat on a Hot Tin Roof, Lilies of the Field, and They Shoot Horses, Don't They?. He also worked as a writer on the radio shows Escape and Suspense, writing the scripts for some of their best episodes, most notably "Three Skeleton Key" and "The Present Tense", both of which starred Vincent Price. Offered here is a 1967 bank c heck made out by James Poe HOWEVER, someone at some time has torn his signature away. Nothing on verso. He has written on front "Am ExpChex - Horses". Since there are no cancellation marks it is assumed the check was never used and the torn away signature was like a cancel??? Odd item.
