About this Item

Rare official Songs of Universal sheet music for the 'Jurassic Park' theme composed by John Williams. Boldly signed by the film's director Steven Spielberg on the front panel and signed by illustrator Chip Kidd with an original drawing of a dinosaur and with the the words J.P! In near fine condition. An exceptional piece, most rare and desirable signed. Spielberg acquired the film rights to 'Jurassic Park' for $1.5 million before the book's publication in 1990. The dinosaurs in the movie were created using life-sized animatronic dinosaurs built by Stan Winston's team and computer-generated imagery by Industrial Light & Magic, which was groundbreaking for its time. John Williams composed the film's incredible score with the determination to write "pieces that would convey a sense of 'awe' and fascination," given that the it dealt with the "overwhelming happiness and excitement" of seeing live dinosaurs. The movie was a blockbuster hit and went on to gross over $914 million worldwide in its original theatrical run, surpassing Spielberg's own 'E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial' to become the highest-grossing film of all time until the release of 'Titanic' in 1997.
