A US Subway poster from the release of Steven Spielberg's Jaws.

The late Roger Kastel's most famous artwork is truly a sight to behold in this large US Subway format. In the run up to Jaws' blockbuster release in 1975 these posters for were printed in three different versions: an undated Advance, a dated Advance and a "Now Playing" style. The design on offer here is the "Now Playing" style. The poster is conservation linen-backed with fold line restoration and a couple of tiny surface scuffs post-restoration. It remains in a very fine condition. Dimensions: 150 cm x 116 cm (59" x 45.5")
