Saturday would've marked the 99th birthday for the comedy icon, who died last summer. In honor of Reiner's birthday, his family is donating a trove of documents, artifacts and personal memorabilia from his past work, including Your Show of Shows and The Dick Van Dyke Show. Reiner’s archives contain writing and versions of scripts from just about every project he worked on and every phase of his career. “It’s a lot there,” said filmmaker and actor Rob Reiner, Carl Reiner’s oldest child. “We’re talking about an 80-year career. He lived to 98 and he started when he was in his late teens. As I like to say, my father was on television before we owned a television.”
