The Big Suitcase of 1969 - An Overstuffed Screenplay by The Firesign Theatre

The Firesign Theatre Presents THE BIG SUITCASE OF 1969 - The Firesign Theatre’s might-have-been psychedelic hit underground movie - takes on over-wrought Shakespeare flicks, classic 1940s serials, and noirly private eyes. Illustrated throughout by Bruce Snyder, the book also includes a newly-discovered collection from the Firesign’s “Wastebasket,” with the never-before-seen original ending to Nick Danger and the ultra-spacey first draft of “Not Insane.”

David Ossman, the Editor and an original member of the Firesign quartet, calls the book “a tribute to our late partners, Phil Austin and Peter Bergman, whose comic spirits are preserved in these fragments, crazy ideas and stoned improvisations.”
