Doubleday & Company, 1974
First Edition, First Printing Review Copy with Signed Card with Shark Fin drawing
A very handsome Fine/near fine book with a Fine vibrant dust jacket. 

The first printing review copy is in Fine/near fine crisp condition with black cloth boards and vibrant silver titles to the spine. The book has sharp corners with one very tiny tip bump, and no edgewear. The binding is tight and square. The end papers are clean with the important Doubleday Review copy stamp, and no owner names, no inscriptions, no book plates and no bookstore stamps. The interior pages are very clean, bright and flat with no marks, no stains, no handling marks, no writing, and no foxing. Beautiful crisp book, internally appearing as unread. Accompanied by Peter Benchley signed card with a shark fin drawing, the card has softened wrinkling. Please see images.

The original first edition jacket has benefited from very slight restoration to the very outer spine tips by an expert conservator and as such presents in Fine condition. The jacket has strong vibrant colors with the Jaws titles to the spine still being a hot vibrant orange (the orange color is usually found faded). The jacket has no edgewear, no chips, no stains, no rubbing, no rips, no fading and no foxing. The dust jacket is NOT Price clipped and has a stated price of $6.95 on the inside front flap. Please see detailed images.
