Would like to purchase photographs/ newspapers cuttings etc on a large Great White Shark landed at Dana Point in June 1976.
The shark was 18 feet long and weighed 4,150lbs.It was harpooned by fishermen Hans Weeren and Larry Mansur.
The shark was displayed frozen at Sea World San Diego from 1976 - 1977.
I have the replica jaw from this shark and would like some photographs to go with it.
If you can help please email back on the forum.
Many thanks
