Wanted - 1976 Great White Shark photos

[sharkman]

Was anyone in Dana Point in June 1976 when a 18 foot GWS was landed and sold to Sea World San Diego ?
Really need some photographs of this shark to go along with the replica jaw.
The jaw is 36" wide by 29" high.
The shark weighed in at 4,150lbs and was one of several sharks that were harpooned in the post "Jaws" era 1975 - 1978.
Hope someone has some old photographs hidden away.
Would buy any photos.
Best wishes
Andrew

Are you asking for photos specific to that GW in particular, or would other shark pics (originals on 35 mm) work? I just recently fished with a guy who has originals of him fishing as a teenager (& with his older brother) out of Montauk with Frank Mundus on the Cricket II, along with original pics of a 4,500+ that didn't make the record books b/c it is alleged he used whale.

PM if interested, I may be able to get the owner of the pics to have them reproduced.

Thank you for the kind offer but the photos i need are from the 18 foot shark from 1976.
Not having much luck but there must be someone who saw this shark being landed.
Take care.
