(20th Century-Fox, 1954) An elaborate set design sketch for “The Egyptian” by future Disney Legend Bill Martin. This Cinemascope Epic set in ancient Egypt called for elaborate sets and costumes, many of which were later used in “The Ten Commandments.” Martin created this sketch of a temple and dock. This may have been his last job for Fox, before accepting a call from Walt Disney in 1953 to come work as one of the first Imagineers on Disneyland. Measuring 9.5” x 23.75”, the graphite sketch is in fair to good condition, with smudges from handling and edge wear, including chipping, two very small holes, and a 3” x 2.5” piece missing from the top right corner.
