When I saw on this, I thought it was a photograph of a production drawing. It appears to be just that.
What I did not realize was that it is not just a photograph of a production drawing, but it was actually produced by Lorimar and used to distribute among the staff working on the film.

When I examined it more closely, it appears to possibly be a color copy of a photograph taken of a larger drawing. It has "Not for publication" and Lorimar Studios stamped on the front. You can easily tell it was actually stamped by the studio.
If you look at the back, you can see ink smears where it was set on top of another photo, and it's ink smeared on to the back of this photo.

The original drawing was done by Ron Cobb, who handled production design on the film.
Ron has worked on other films, such as Star Wars, Aliens, Back to the Future, ect.

This is another rare find I did not expect.

Superb production concept drawing by Ron Cobb.
You can see that this was put on with a rubber stamp.
The Studio Label was also put on with a rubber stamp
Here on the back you can see the ink from the photo stamped right before this one.
No mistaking that Ron Cobb signature!
