Description

Williams sketches a passage from his iconic Jaws theme

Color glossy 10 x 8 photo of the shark from Jaws, signed in black felt tip by composer John Williams, who adds a sketch of a fin over waves and two bars of music from his iconic 'Jaws' score. In very fine condition.

John Williams's revolutionary score for Jaws—which transformed a simple melody into a terrifying motif that became synonymous with impending danger—earned him the Academy Award for Best Original Dramatic Score. Director Steven Spielberg later said that without Williams's score the film would have been only half as successful, and according to Williams it jump started his career.
