They have twelve scraps of paper ... twelve chances to kill!" nominated for the Best Picture Academy Award; about the twelve men of a jury in a trial where the accused seems surely guilty, but one man votes not guilty and one by one, he convinces the others to his point of view; it has been over 50 years since this movie was made, but it is just as powerful today as it was at the time!) starring Henry Fonda, Lee J.

NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography.
Important Added Info: Note that there is a large ad on page 12 that has wonderful artwork of the entire jury wrangling over their vote by Al Hirschfeld! Also note that we have provided an image of the front and back covers of this pressbook, and of course, the winner of this auction will receive the entire single pressbook we are auctioning (plus any supplements or heralds described above)! Also note that this pressbook is complete and uncut! Given that theater owners purchased pressbooks partly in order to create their newspaper advertising, and quite frequently cut them up for that purpose, it is rare to find a pressbook that IS complete and uncut!

Condition: good to very good, NO CUTS. There is faint scuffing scattered throughout the front cover and a small price sticker in the bottom right of the back cover, but the interior of the pressbook is in pretty nice condition!
