Two pieces of film equipment from the cult classic, ''Jaws''. The classic horror tale about a man-eating shark was filmed at Menemsha, a fishing village on Martha's Vineyard in 1974 and enjoyed record success in gross revenue. Filming underwater scenes during that era in Hollywood production required a sophisticated technological approach and these two pieces of equipment are a testament to the film's last legacy. Includes: (1) an underwater light-meter housing and (2) an underwater viewfinder. Hydroflex brand light meter housing measures 4'' x 6.25'' with a ''1433'' identification code to side. Made of aluminum and Plexiglas for ideal use underwater. Underwater viewfinder measures 2.5'' in diameter x 4'' and presumably still works. Near fine.
