About This Item

London: British Lion, 1959. Three vintage reference photographs from the 1959 short film. With printed mimeo snipes affixed to the verso.

A surreal, slapstick sketch comedy film, filmed over 2 days on a shoestring budget of approximately 70 pounds. Considered influential on mid-century British comedy, particularly Monty Python's Flying Circus, and a purported favorite of The Beatles.

Two photographs approximately 10 x 8 inches, one photograph 8.25 x 6.5 inches. Very Good plus, lightly creased.
