For those wondering, the 1916 Jersey Shore Shark Attacks is believed to have inspired Peter Benchley's novel Jaws and Steven Spielberg's film adaptation.
20.06.2025 17:19 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0Happy 50th Anniversary to JAWS,
In honor of that, I want to share from my archives, a few photographs of a scrapbook on the 1916 Jersey Shore Shark Attacks in New Jersey.
This was a goodwill find and the original was donated to the Ocean County Historical Society in Toms River, NJ
