JAWS
Shop our collection of gift items inspired by the summer blockbuster film Jaws (1975).
In 1975, the usage of "blockbuster" for films coalesced around Steven Spielberg's Jaws. It was perceived as a new cultural phenomenon: fast-paced, exciting entertainment, inspiring interest and conversation beyond the theatre (which would later be called "buzz"), and repeated viewings. The film is regarded as the first film of the "blockbuster era", and founded the blockbuster film genre.
Inspired by the sole surviving full-scale model of the shark from Jaws (1975) which is currently on display in the museum.
Take home a not-so-scary version of the sole surviving full scale model of the shark featured in our museum atrium.
