Beschreibung:

Paramount, 1971. Original drawing, black marker on tracing paper, "Int. The Chocolate Room," "78" and signed ("Harper Goff '69") to lower right; 2 smaller original drawings, marker and color pencil on paper, titled "Finger Trees / with enormous grapes / growing to the sky" and "Gum-Bear-Tree"; 1 large original drawing, pencil on tracing paper, with title and notes in German, dated "26-6-70," numbered "45" in black marker. An elaborate design featuring two scenes with Wonka in different areas of the same drawing, to show scale. This version of the Factory includes details unused in the film, like ice cream-themed decorations. Also with three designs for two of Wonka's candy trees growing within the Factory. One is a larger, more refined version of the smaller sketches, apparently drawn by someone besides Goff; the notes on it are in German, since the film was shot in Munich. Chocolate Room: 17.75 x 24 in.; Finger Trees and Gum-Bear-Tree: 8.75 x 11.25 in.; trees on tracing paper: 16.5 x 23.25 in.
