content: Drawing of the living room set for the unaired pilot episode of the television series <i>And Justice for All</i>, designed by Henry C. Lickel. Norman Lear wrote and produced the pilot for ABC in 1968 and although the network declined to pick up the show, it later evolved into the popular CBS series <i>All in the Family</i>.
label: Description (Brief)
content: Inspired by the British comedy series <i> Till Death Do Us Part/i>, <i>And Justice for All</i> was to mine humor from the generational and political conflict within the Justice family. Archie and Edith Justice were played by Carroll O’Connor and Jean Stapleton, but daughter Gloria and her husband were played by different actors than those that would eventually fill the roles in <i>All in the Family</i>. The living room set bears many similarities to the set of <i>All in the Family</i>, which was eventually picked up for production by CBS and premiered in 1971.
