The cover page features a unique security tracking number (028341) and is dated April 21, 1997, placing this draft more than two years before the film's debut.
The script opens with a vivid introduction to Bobby Bowfinger in his Culver City bungalow, establishing the character's desperate and charismatic nature through Steve Martin's original dialogue. Because this draft utilizes the early working title and carries internal tracking marks, it offers a distinct look at the development process of this 1990s comedy. This is a significant document for collectors focusing on Steve Martin’s writing career or the evolution of modern comedy scripts.
