Summary

Description
English: Poster for the American theatrical release of Alfred Hitchcock's 1960 film Psycho reminding the audience of its "no late admissions" policy for screenings, which was highly unusual for the time. Hitchcock stands at left, pointing at his wristwatch and sternly gazing at the viewer. The message reads:

It Is Required That You See Psycho From the Very Beginning!

The next showing of Psycho begins at... [empty box for inclusion of showtime]

The manager of this theatre has been instructed, at the risk of his life, not to admit to the theatre any persons after the picture starts.

Any spurious attempts to enter by side doors, fire escapes or ventilating shafts will be met by force.

The entire objective of this extraordinary policy, of course, is to help you enjoy Psycho more.

— Alfred Hitchcock [signature]

Permission
(Reusing this file)
English: The poster does not seem to include a valid copyright notice. Regardless, any copyright for the artwork was not renewed; see the Copyright Catalog (1978 to present). In order to maintain copyright protection, the poster would have had to be renewed in 1987 or 1988. Copyright lapsed at that time. Note that the poster is a distinct work from the film and had to be renewed separately.

Licensing

This image is in the public domain because it is a mere mechanical scan or photocopy of a public domain original, or – from the available evidence – is so similar to such a scan or photocopy that no copyright protection can be expected to arise. The original itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
Public domain
This work is in the public domain because it was published in the United States between 1929 and 1963, and although there may or may not have been a copyright notice, the copyright was not renewed. For further explanation, see Commons:Hirtle chart and the copyright renewal logs. Note that it may still be copyrighted in jurisdictions that do not apply the rule of the shorter term for US works (depending on the date of the author's death), such as Canada (70 years p.m.a.), Mainland China (50 years p.m.a., not Hong Kong or Macao), Germany (70 years p.m.a.), Mexico (100 years p.m.a.), Switzerland (70 years p.m.a.), and other countries with individual treaties.

This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate {{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag.

Note: This tag applies to scans and photocopies only. For photographs of public domain originals taken from afar, {{PD-Art}} may be applicable. See Commons:When to use the PD-Art tag.
