Pitcher, Doris. Peyton Place scrapbook, 1957-1992 (bulk 1957-1958).

Title: Peyton Place scrapbook, 1957-1992 (bulk 1957-1958).

Scrapbook created by Doris Pitcher, librarian at Camden Public Library, Camden, Me., during the filming of Peyton Place in 1957, with other items added by later librarians. Based on a controversial novel of the same title by Grace Metalious, the film version of Peyton Place sparked controversy as well when 10th Century Fox attempted to secure a filming location. Camden became immersed in the movie, footage being filed the last two weeks of June in 1957, with approximately 500 townspeople involved as extras or stand-ins.
