Jaws by Peter Benchley | Easton Press 2009

Jaws by Peter Benchley, published by Easton Press, 2009. Condition is fine, factory sealed and never opened. No damage whatsoever.

Jaws stayed on the bestseller list for 44 weeks, selling over 20 million copies, and the Steven Spielberg film adaptation that followed is generally acknowledged as the first summer blockbuster. Peter Benchley came from a distinguished literary family, the son of novelist Nathaniel Benchley and grandson of Algonquin Round Table founder Robert Benchley, and after the extraordinary success of Jaws spent the remainder of his life as a prominent ocean conservationist, working to protect the very creatures his novel had made the world fear. The Peter Benchley Ocean Awards continue his legacy to this day.

A factory sealed Easton Press fine leather edition of one of the most culturally transformative novels of the 20th century in flawless condition is a genuinely compelling collectors piece, combining the prestige of the Easton Press binding with a book whose impact on popular culture is almost impossible to overstate.

A wonderful addition for collectors of thriller fiction, film history, Easton Press editions, or simply one of the most iconic novels ever written.
