In Craig Miller’s “Star Wars Memories” page 165 there is an image of “Leigh Brackett’s Longhand Outline for The Empire Strikes Back”. It is explained that she created the outline after listening to Lucas and Kurtz explain their ideas in the pitch meeting. Has anyone seen this image in a readable form? The image version in the book is too small to read, the document is three pages, full of handwritten notes, one for each act.

I’d never heard of this document before. I’d love to see a legible version also, as I hadn’t realized that any of Brackett’s notes from the story conference had survived besides the first-draft script itself.
