An original hand-painted pitch book for an ABC TV series adaptation of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s The Lost World (Hodder and Stoughton, 1912). The book features illustrations in gouache, marker ink, and pencil of set pieces from the lost world, including a dinosaur eating a man, an ominous waterfall, “cavemen from hell,” “monsters of the deep,” and “the graveyard of the damned.” Allen directed a film adaptation of The Lost World (20th Century Fox, 1960). Although he had success adapting another of his film projects, Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea (ABC, 1964-68), for television, The Lost World was not produced.
