"Jaws" (ジョーズ), Original Japanese First-Release Movie Poster 1975, B2 Size (51 × 73 cm) K250A

This is an original Japanese B2 poster printed in 1975 for Steven Spielberg’s Jaws—the film that invented the summer blockbuster, powered by Peter Benchley’s novel and John Williams’s immortal two-note motif. A foundational thriller whose suspense mechanics are taught to this day.

Design
The classic menace-from-below key art fills the sheet: the great white rising toward an oblivious swimmer, rendered in cool oceanic gradients. Massive crimson “JAWS” headline sits above the Japanese katakana title 「ジョーズ」; credits and format line at the base complete an elegantly balanced, high-impact layout. The Japanese border treatment and distributor marks distinguish this as a domestic theatrical piece.

Cult status / film notes
A pop-culture colossus that changed studio marketing, theatrical windows, and event-movie strategy. Its restrained effects and editorial rhythm remain a masterclass in cinematic tension.
