A photographically reproduced typescript of Neil Simon's revised final draft of his screenplay,Seems Like Old Times, has laid in a shooting call for the first day of filming. Bradbound in Rastar Studio wrappers, the title page is labeled "Revised final draft" and dated April 1980. The cover bears the inked name "Traxel" and is likely photographer Mel Traxel, who served as still photographer for several Simon films. Laid in the screenplay is a two-page Columbia Pictures shooting call for April 7, 1980, the first day of filming, with an attached inter-office memorandum from Michele Panelli.
