Jaws

Universal City, CA: Universal Pictures, Circa 1975. Vintage photograph from the set of the 1975 film, of Spielberg and crew in wetsuits, filming waist deep in the Atlantic Ocean. "Movie Star News" stamp on verso.

The film that basically invented the concept of the summer blockbuster, forever changing how movies were greenlit and marketed, and, along with "Star Wars" two years later, effectively signaled the end of the New Hollywood Cinema. Based on the 1974 novel by Peter Benchley.

Winner of three Academy Awards, with a fourth nomination for Best Picture.

Set in the fictional Amity Island, shot on location in Martha's Vineyard, MA.

8 x 10 inches. Very Good plus, with 1.25 inch closed tear on the upper mid left side, mended on verso with paper tape.
