Propstore to Auction Quint's Harpoon Launcher and Fishing Rod From 'Jaws' in Spring 2026

The screen-verified pieces emerge as rare survivors of the film's punishing ocean shoot.

Overview

  • Propstore says the screen- and photo-matched W. W. Greener Harpoon Rifle Mark II comes with its matching case and an effects-made shark dart, with a presale estimate of $250,000 to $500,000.
  • Quint's screen- and photo-matched Fenwick 130-pound rod with a production-used Penn Senator 16/0 reel is also included, with reported estimates differing between $75,000–$150,000 and "upwards of $150,000."
  • Propstore emphasizes that fully verified 'Jaws' props are unusually scarce due to the production's damaging saltwater conditions and stunts.
  • COO Brandon Alinger calls the harpoon lot the single finest 'Jaws' piece the company has seen in three decades of handling memorabilia.
  • The Los Angeles Spring Entertainment Memorabilia Live Auction opens registration with the catalog in February 2026, with live bidding scheduled for March 2026.
