RARE!! GREAT WHITE SHARK HEAD MOUNT (Carcharodon carcharias) with a GENUINE GREAT WHITE SHARK JAW This mounted great white shark head was caught by Clive Green in April of 1975 off the coast of Albany Australia. The shark weighed 2622 pounds and measured 15' 9". The actual jaws were used in this mount--the teeth are REAL. The fiberglass head is professionally done, extremely realistic, superb coloration. This shark also has the distinction of being the last legal great white shark jaw/mount exported from Australia to the U.S. under the Environment Australia Management Authority. Copies of the Export/Import CITES permit are included with this purchase. Mounted on varnished solid wood display piece, weighs 73 pounds. Measures 34" tall x 30" wide x 35" from wall mount. Largest primary teeth measure a full 2-1/16" long. Left & right sides.
Note the proportion to Glenn on the right, friend Bob on the left. Last views are from the top and bottom. Notice the excellent wrinkling effect on the lower jaw.
Close-up of the nose - note the nostril and the ampullae of Lorenzini and the exposed gum surface, again the realistic wrinkled effect.
Note the texturing of the surface palate of the mouth and inside of the lower jaw
Close up of right quadrant of teeth, and ruler next to one of these principal teeth, 2-1/16":
Photos of upper right & left quadrants of teeth:
And lower right, center and left areas of teeth:
Up to 3 rows of teeth visible, (4 rows towards the corners of the jaw, not shown). All genuine and original.
This extraordinary specimen has been in Mr. Green's personal collection since 1975 when this magnificent great white was caught. Due to Mr. Green's failing health, we acquired this directly from him, making us the only person other than Mr. Green to own this. We have consulted with several experts in the field to determine the true value of this most rare item. We were advised there were two ways to do this: ONE being the removal of the jaw from the mount (taking approximately 6 months and $3500 to accomplish). Once removed, considering only 3 rows to be salvageable (any others would be a plus), the tooth sizes would be as follows: Nine 2-1/16" Twelve 2" Six 1-7/8" Nine 1-3/4" Six 1-5/8" Nine 1-1/2" Eighteen 1-3/8" Six: 1-1/4" Six 1-1/8" Nine 1-1/16" Twelve: 1" The cumulative retail value of these 102 teeth is $32,490 (check Sharks page 4 for current retail values) OPTION TWO: Selling it as a rare one-of-a-kind collectible, leaving it intact, which we have decided to do. Out of respect to the shark, we felt this was the most honorable thing to do.

"STRATOSPHERE" SIZES OF GREAT WHITES We're calling these "The MAGNIFICENT 7" Sizes are: 2-5/8", 2-11/16", and YES, a 2-3/4" (upper center of Glenn's hand). Not for the faint of heart. |

| This collection came to us through the settlement of an estate. Over the years, the collection has passed through several different hands, so the whereabouts of the particulars of the great white shark these came from are not known. If this information were available, these 7 teeth would all be classified as world record holders. But because we don't have the provenance on these, we are unable to register them as such. |
| 2-3/4"
Starting bid on this tooth is $10,000.

WHITE SHARK TEETH for sale
Purchased from a West Coast collector (both collections) we've known for 16 years, due to financial difficulties he has offered the collection to us which we purchased. This is the single largest collection we know of that is available, others pale by comparison. Most are museum quality, any deviations from this are duly noted. They are below, from largest to smallest. Prices are based on size and perfection of each tooth. Every collection we buy is higher priced than the last. Do we know how many teeth he still has? No we do not, we only know when he releases a quantity to us. We do not gold or silver cap teeth, the ones available below this group have been already capped for us. If you want one of the natural teeth capped, you can: 1) take it to a local jeweler, 2) take it to your local dentist for capping, or 3) contact Gary Olt in the blue box near the bottom of the page for a quote. Teeth can be wired in silver or gold for an additional $5 charge, and would include a 20" black suede necklace. See necklace choices on page 1 for any necklace upgrades. All inventory is UPDATED EVERY 24 HOURS. Information card included. |

Cool Customer "Wizard" from California writes us: "Here
is my JAWS tattoo on the inside of my left arm. It's an exact
copy of the movie poster. My wife and I are JAWS movie
fanatics. It's become a "cult" flick for us, as we can
recite the script as it's being played. We never cared for the
sequels but the first is a classic favorite. We have several
copies on VHS and DVD. I guess we are a bit different and swim
to the beat of a different tide!"

GREAT WHITE SHARK JAWS Before you get your heart set on owning one, keep in mind that the value of the jaw is equal to or greater than the value of the individual teeth in the jaw...and there can be 300-500 teeth in a jaw. That is why not too many jaws are available for sale, because they have been soaked and the individual teeth sold - and if they ARE for sale, they usually start at $3,000 to $20,000 depending on condition of the teeth & cartilage, and size of the jaw & teeth. Here is an example of a great white shark jaw we photographed in October 2005 (we did not choose to buy it), this was from a 12 footer:

| INSTRUCTIONS
ON CARING FOR YOUR SHARK TOOTH
If you wear the tooth as jewelry, brush it with white toothpaste periodically to remove body oils & dirt. We do not recommend that the tooth be worn in water (shower, ocean, pool). This tooth is no longer in the mouth of a living shark and must be treated differently to maintain its white color (would you wear your leather shoes in the shower?... same principle). Either the tooth will be kept in a display box as a collector tooth, or worn on a regular basis and not be of collector quality after being worn. So, for daily wear, you may want to
treat the root (the porous top of the tooth) so it will not discolor from
body oils, and to prevent moisture from getting into the tooth tissue and
discolor it. Treatment: brush on clear finger nail polish
(from a pharmacy) or polyurethane (from a hardware store paint department
- from a can you can brush it on, not spray),and the root will stay white without the need to clean it again. Your shark tooth should last many years and bring much enjoyment to you. |
