Description
Jaws (1975), subway poster, US
Artist: Roger Kastel (dates unknown)
Unframed: 46 x 58 in. (116.8 x 147.3 cm)
This poster was designed to be pasted up on the New York subway. Therefore only unused copies survived. The poster was also printed with full cre🍸dits on the blank area on the right-hand side. This particular version doesn't have the credits, and therefore has far more impact.
Very rare. This piece does not surface often.
Jaws invented ඣthe summer blockbuster and was a massive hit that shattered 𒁏box office records. It was the film that propelled Steven Spielberg to international fame, and frightened a whole generation out of the water!
