Carlton-Browne of the F.O. (released in the U.S. in 1960 as "Man In A Cocked Hat"), the 1959 Roy Boulting & Jeffrey Dell English Boulting Brothers political sexploitation comedy ("A roar to end war!"; "Two great thinkers turned empire shrinkers"; "The Boulting brothers new comedy hit 'Man In a Cocked Hat' ... It's the cockeyed story of why the three greatest powers on earth wanted Gaillardia*. See why: The Russians came to spy on it! The Americans cast an eye on it! The British made an ally of it! But the natives didn't rely on it!"; "*HISTORICAL NOTE: The island of Gaillardia was discovered in 1720 when an English vessel with a cargo of oranges ran into it in the dark. As a result, Great Britain gained a colony, the captain lost his ticket, and the inhabitants lived on marmalade for months. But it wasn't until over 200 years later, that things really got sticky."; produced by John Boulting) starring Terry-Thomas (in the title role as Cadogan de Vere Carlton-Browne), Peter Sellers, Luciana Paoluzzi, Thorley Walters, Raymond Huntley, and Harry Locke

Important Added Info: Note that this is a "country of origin" poster for this English movie! Also note that this poster measures 27" x 39 3/4" [69 x 101 cm].

UPDATED 10/01/2012: Note that we initially did not mention that somebody (perhaps an overzealous censor) painted more modest underwear onto the woman. We have updated the Condition Description and changed the Condition Grade to "fair to good".

Condition: fair to good. There is a Canadian censor stamp in the border at lower left, and major censor paint over the girl's waist area. Depending on how you look at it, this is either a major detraction or a kind of cool addition to the poster (showing just how zealous the censors of that time were!).
