The word was out that no one was to be allowed on the set of Warner Bros.' super secret Project Icepick. Absolute secrecy prevailed while the cameras were turning. The doors were locked. The public was barred. The performers were asked not to divulge the mystery that en-shrouded this unique film. Now we are ready to tell you the name of Project Icepick. It is The Couch. It is the most astonishing venture into the mind of a murder any motion picture has ever dared."; "So startling it had to be made in secret with the doors bolted - with the public left out"; "The picture that had to be made in secret!

If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: This poster has been professionally linenbacked. It now looks great, and most dealers would describe it as "fine (or mint) on linen". We have noted the defects that were restored below (and feel everyone should always do this!). Many collectors would not be aware of the restoration this poster has had unless it was specifically shown to them! Condition: good to very good. This poster was in good to very good condition prior to linenbacking. It appears to have had the following defects: there were small tears and tiny paper loss in the top blank border. There was an extra horizontal fold just above the regular top one. The defects were well corrected during the linenbacking process (but note that there is a NSS stamp and some writing on the back of the poster that slightly bleeds through in the bottom center of the poster in the credits area) .
