well then split the difference, offer the seller $7,799,800.38.. maybe he'll sell it to you......

Hell, if that's the case, might as well go for this one... it's still available and a real steal at only $3195.00, with best offers being accepted  ;D

The one shown in that linked message above is a US insert, (AND from tom loce), not the full size US one sheet poster.

One ended at a good price at Bruce's, probably due to no one in the US following the sale.  I would hate to have my stuff up on a 4th of July.

Yeah.. I dont know for sure but I would guess that auctions held on any holiday might not realize the best prices.

There were a few things I wanted at that auction, but at the end of the day, life is more important than posters.  And beers.  And pot.  And good company.  In that order.

 Agree, agree and more agree. I'm still enjoying a last July 4th beer. cheers

BTW, where has Chop been? He hasnt been to the forum since last December. Maybe he snagged a low priced, rolled JAWS poster, after all.

Same here, didn't even bother to check my bids yesterday which I gonna say it is a very good things...  Was too busy watching end of Season 4 of Bates Motel with wife, pot and beer (in that order).
And currently, I have a new obsession, I must go to Colorado to taste the Leaf by Snoop products.  Any wind of change in my hobbies get immediate attention !

Even though only a (non-printed) submission, were it to exist, I might consider this, were it printed & available, as it conveys a very ominous vibe, imho.

Probably one for the Mid Auction thread.  At the time of posting, $2k... and climbing.

Poor old Chop...

My almost perfect, folded example of the Jaws US one sheet sold at Christie's in October 2015 for £1600 (after fees etc came out with £1238). That that would still be a great result today!
Best wishes,
Adam

I own a mint rolled copy of this poster.  Like the one being sold.  I got it in 2002, one of the first posters I ever bought, and paid $127.50.  I remember thinking it was too much.

Wish Chop had been there.

Well, since I'm not a seller and never will be, I think every single poster is too much.  I will never see my money again.

I finally got one,  however it is the Australian version. about 1/4 of the price of what the  USA version goes for. so I am very pleased and slowly getting used to the purple, and overall I think it is a rarer poster than the USA version. Bruce's site shows he has only sold 5 since 2010. ( I may be wrong on the exact number)

Looking forward to seeing it, if you decide to post a pic of it, Steve. Congrats on snagging your copy, too.  thumbsup.gif

A quick question for the forum, and I hope you'll excuse my ignorance around this.

I've seen various pictures of the US Jaws one-sheet, and the border containing the credits appears black in some shots and dark blue in others. Is this simply something to do with the way the picture has been taken, or is there a colouring variation?

Blue



Black



Many thanks,

Hey Desk,

Yeah, it's just the lighting of the photograph.  It is dark blue in person.

Speaking of Jaws, I saw that Susan Backline signs copies of this photo at shows she attends.
Is this a real poster, or did someone mock up this for her and include fold lines and everything when they made it?
