Morton Haack costume sketch of Dr. Zaius for Planet of the Apes. (TCF, 1968) Original sketch of Dr. Zaius wearing a white tunic with leather accents in a cross-stitch pattern, with matching pants and shoes, accomplished in gouache and ink on a 16 in. x 20 in. leaf of artist's illustration paper, and signed in black ink by Haack at the lower right.

This is a conceptual design, created during the development stages of the film, as the final version was tan/orange in color. An impressive illustration showing what "might have been" in this great film! The artistry is exceptional, and piece is suitable for framing and prominent display.
