BLUE WATER, WHITE DEATH 1971 Movie Poster - STICKER Vinyl Kiss-Cut Decal

Design Overview

This sticker decal showcases the iconic artwork of the 1971 documentary, "Blue Water, White Death". The design immediately grabs attention with its dramatic and frightening depiction of a great white shark, a central element of almost every vintage poster for the film.

Focal Point: The Great White Shark

The primary focus is the shark's head, prominently displayed with its mouth wide open, showcasing a menacing display of sharp teeth. This visual choice directly reflects the film's subject matter while simultaneously emphasizing the perilous nature of the expedition, pre-dating the heightened shark-phobia popularized by "Jaws." The shark's imposing presence is a testament to the unknown dangers of the deep ocean, representing both the fascination with and fear of the apex predator.

Text and Layout

The title "Blue Water, White Death" is typically positioned in bold lettering, strategically placed near or above the shark image. This placement, along with taglines such as "The hunt for the Great White Shark", further amplifies the thrilling and adventurous theme. The use of bold text ensures the title’s visibility, immediately connecting the artwork to the film’s narrative.

Symbolism and Meaning

The design's primary symbolism revolves around the exploration and confrontation of the unknown. The shark, a symbol of primal power and hidden danger, represents the challenges faced by the crew. The poster's artwork is a testament to the enduring allure of exploration and our collective fascination with the mysteries hidden beneath the surface of the ocean.

Glossy kiss-cut vinyl stickers made for smooth, indoor surfaces — laptops, journals, mirrors, and other finished items. Crisp edges, vivid color, strong hold, and not waterproof.

What “kiss-cut” means: the blade cuts the vinyl layer into the exact shape while leaving the backing liner whole, so pieces separate cleanly and lift off the sheet without tearing. It’s the neatest way to produce shaped stickers and multi-piece sheets.

  • Material: reliable vinyl face with a permanent acrylic adhesive formulated for smooth, non-porous surfaces.
  • Finish: glossy surface that enhances contrast and depth without feeling overly reflective.
  • Printing: eco-solvent inks provide dense color and crisp detail for fine lines and gradients.
  • Use case: intended for indoor environments only — not waterproof. Not recommended for continuous exposure to moisture or dishwashing.
  • Application friendly: easy-peel backing and a liner that releases cleanly to help reduce bubbles and misfeeds during placement.

These stickers perform best on smooth, dust-free surfaces — think laptop lids, sealed notebooks, glass, mirrors, finished shelving and lockers. They’ll stick well where the surface is flat and clean; avoid rough wood, silicone, fabric, and heavily textured paint.

  1. Clean: remove dust and oils with a lint-free cloth. For stubborn grime, use a mild soap and water rinse; let the area dry completely.
  2. Align: peel a corner, position carefully, then press the center down first.
  3. Smooth: work outward from the center with a soft card or a thumb to push air out and ensure the edges set down firmly.

Tip: give the adhesive 24 hours to fully settle before heavy handling. These are not designed for outdoor or wet conditions.

  • Gently dust with a soft, dry cloth, moving from the center outward to avoid scratching the gloss.
  • For light marks, a barely damp microfiber will lift residue — blot, don’t scrub, and dry right away.
  • Avoid bleach, solvents, abrasive pads, and steam; moisture or harsh chemicals can lift edges and fade inks.

Reminder: these stickers are not waterproof. Keep them away from sinks, outdoor exposure, and dishwasher cycles to maintain adhesion and finish.

Sizes are measured across the sticker’s longest side. For example, a 3″ sticker is 3 inches across its largest dimension (height or width, depending on the shape).

The kiss-cut follows the sticker’s outline for a tidy border; complex shapes can show small variances, but the advertised measurement refers to the maximum edge-to-edge length.
