Wikipedia: Jaws is a 1975 American thriller film directed by Steven Spielberg. Based on the 1974 novel by Peter Benchley, it stars Roy Scheider as police chief Martin Brody, who, with the help of a marine biologist (Richard Dreyfuss) and a professional shark hunter (Robert Shaw), hunts a man-eating great white shark that attacks beachgoers at a New England summer resort town. Murray Hamilton plays the mayor, and Lorraine Gary portrays Brody's wife. The screenplay is credited to Benchley, who wrote the first drafts, and actor-writer Carl Gottlieb, who rewrote the script during principal photography. Regarded as a watershed moment in motion picture history, Jaws was the prototypical summer blockbuster and won several awards for its music and editing. It was the highest-grossing film in history until the release of Star Wars two years later; both films were pivotal in establishing the modern Hollywood business model, which pursues high box-office returns from action and adventure films with simple high-concept premises, released during the summer in thousands of theaters and advertised heavily. Jaws was followed by three sequels, none of which involved Spielberg or Benchley, as well as many imitative thrillers. ** Adjusted for inflation, "Jaws" (1975) grossed over $1.5 billion in its initial domestic run, making it one of the highest-grossing films of all time. Initially, it earned $260 million at the domestic box office. When accounting for ticket price inflation, this figure translates to over $1.5 billion. >>This is a reading copy.

Magazine. [20]p., 12.5x9 inch self-wraps, a cheaply-made magazine with about twenty pages of captioned caricatures on newsprint, all fullpage b&w cartoons with a centerfold in three colors. Paper very toned and verging on fragile, cover is edgeworn with abraded spinefold, has a small clear-tape reinforcement at the head but tail is also split (one inch). On a positive note, staples are bright and have not injured the color plate, item is fair to good, remains handleable. The center-stapled doublespread shows a drooling Stalin raping La France while Blum and company look on. A twice-recurring figure in the suite of b&w drawings is the monetary unit of France, the franc, depicted as Jesus, his circumcision and entombment. Anti-socialist bias, demonic Stalin portrayed multiple times. We see only one anti-fascist image: it shows a swastika'd flag planted in the heart of France, accompanied by skewering flags that represent Masonry, Britain, US, USSR, Italy, Japan, others.…
