Kirby,
 
I'm sorry, but I keep forgetting that Americans are not familiar with the linguistic concept of saying one thing and meaning something else. While it is frequently mixed up, 'irony' in fact has nothing to do with flattening your clothes.

But, Helmut, you say in your description on your site, that it’s “quite unlikely” that Kastel had seen the 1973 Cuban poster.
Don’t you think that calling his poster a rip-off is a bit of a s t r e t c h  ??

What very few people know: The now iconic JAWS poster is a copycat. Roger Castel's design is a blatant rip-off of a Cuban poster from 1973.
 
If you do not believe me, see for yourself. The second image shows the original and the copy side by side, and you will see it's all there:
