Description: A small octavo but NOT a book-club edition -- original price of J. / $6.95 showing to jacket front flap. Also NOT the first printing -- NO "first edition" statement showing to copyright page. Nonetheless an early 1974 printing and no mention of the following year's blockbuster Steven Spielberg film -- the prototype of the modern Hollywood "summer blockbuster" (two years before "Star Wars") -- starring Roy Scheider, Robert Shaw, Richard Dreyfuss, and Lorraine Gary, with Academy Award-winning score by John Williams. (In 1991, author Benchley told the Palm Beach Post the novel sold 4.5 million copies before the film, and another 4.5 million copies after the film.). Printer's code P36 near spine of the final page of text; 311 pp.
