Art by Reginald Mount. Mount worked primarily in public information poster design, during and after WW2, but the talent for caricature that occasionally surfaced in that field found full expression in this classic design, one of the most sought after of all British film posters. Very scarce.
V. Good condition.

These seven cards are from the very scarce original British lobby set, with excellent scenes. Unusually for the time, they're printed on a semi-gloss stock. A complete or near-complete set is rare to find.
On the point of escape..disaster!

'Major' Courtney charms Mrs Wilberforce. Alec Guinness's performance as the creepy 'Professor' Marcus was centered around what is essentially an impersonation of Alistair Sims, who he greatly admired.

The thwarted gang are forced to endure a gruesomely comical tea party. The unusual mixture of the comic and macabre - and fatal little old ladies - is not unremiscent of Frank Capra's 'Arsenic and Old Lace'.

The casting of the young Peter Sellers with Alec Guinness was significant: Sellers admired above all others Guinness's mastery of the character and physical transformation comedy he was to make his own.
