If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that this 40x60 from the 1965 re-release of "Psycho" (which I have never seen before!) has a lot of cool taglines which are not on the other posters from that re-release. But really strange is the "Manager's Note" in the lower right corner which reads, "The shower-bath sequence happens 44 minutes after PSYCHO starts.". Why in the world did they put this on a poster intended for the general public to look at?! Condition: very good. The poster has pairs of staple holes around the edges and creases along the foldlines. Note that a restorer could likely flatten the poster without backing it (using slight heat from a dry-mount press), which would greatly minimize the foldlines, but would not make them disappear.
