Auction History Result 9r764 JAWS 2 LC '78 crowd on beach watches Roy Scheider pointing gun at the shark! Date Sold 8/20/2015 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Lobby Card (LC; measures 11" x 14" [28 x 36 cm]) (Learn More) Jaws 2, the 1978 Jeannot Szwarc man-eating Great White shark attack horror sequel ("...May be too Intense for younger children"; "All New"; "Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the water..."; "Written by Carl Gottlieb and Howard Sackler"; "Based on characters created by Peter Benchley") starring Roy Scheider, Lorraine Gary, Murray Hamilton, Joseph Mascolo, Jeffrey Kramer, Collin Wilcox Paxton, and Cindy Grover (as the girl swimmer in the close encounter with the shark). Note that Steven Spielberg, who had directed the original Jaws, did not return to direct this sequel, and he later stated that it was because of the horrendous problems they had in filming the first movie (particularly in making the mechanical shark, Bruce, work), and he was afraid to possibly repeat that experience! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that there are two oddities about the lobby cards for this title. The first is that it seems that only four cards were made (we have sold a number of sets, and they have always had the same four cards). This was normally only done for very low budget movies or re-releases, so we don't know why this would have been done for this movie. Second, there are cards that have a border image of a shark under two teens in a sailboat, and other cards that have a border image of the girl skiing in front of the shark, but there are four cards with each border image, and they are identical to each other as far as the main scenes go! So it appears there were two different sets of four cards. We suppose they could have distributed them together as a set of eight, but that seems even more weird, because there would have been four "duplicated" central scenes, with different border art! If anyone knows more about this, please e-mail us and we will post it here. Condition: very good to fine. Note that this lobby card is completely unrestored and there is not a single piece of tape on either the front or back! Learn More about condition grades
