The Dock Brief (released in the U.S. in 1963 as "Trial and Error") the 1962 James Hill English courtroom legal lawyer murder black comedy ("You never saw an embarrasseder barrister!"; about a non-practicing lawyer who is assigned as a public defender to a man who murdered his overbearing wife, and he is not prepared for the task) starring Peter Sellers, Richard Attenborough, Beryl Reid, David Lodge, Frank Pettingell, and Audrey Nicholson

If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.
Important Added Info: Note that ANY English movie paper from this movie is incredibly rare. We have never before auctioned a single English movie paper item from this movie until we we received this British quad, which is a "country of origin" poster for this English movie! It is one of a remarkable collection of SIXTEEN "country of origin" British quads we are currently auctioning, which includes some wonderful ones, and ten of them are from the 1950s and six are from the early 1960s, and all of them are posters that virtually never are offered for sale or at auction, and many of them are ones we have never auctioned before! This is an incredibly rare opportunity to acquire one or many of these ultra rare "country of origin" posters that may not come up again for many years! Also note that this poster was folded at one time but has been laying flat for a long time and will be sent rolled in a tube.

Condition: good. The poster has some light water staining in the far left of the middle horizontal fold, with a lesser amount of water staining at the right end of that fold. It has some diagonal creases at the left and right ends of that fold and slightly at the top and bottom of the left and right vertical folds. Other than the above, which is easily corrected through a relatively simple linenbacking, the poster is in nice condition!
