Hollywood: Paramount Pictures, 1960. Vintage black and white photograph of Anthony Perkins on the set of the 1960 film, silhouetted against the Bates Motel. The most sought after image from the known stills produced.

Far and away the highest grossing film of Hitchcock's career, nominated for 4 Academy awards, including Hitichcock's fifth and final Best Director nomination, and a key film in expanding allowable depictions of both violence and sexuality under the eroding Production Code. Selected by the National Film Registry in 1992.

8 x 10 inches. Very Good plus, with a few pinholes at the corners.

National Film Registry. Spicer US.
