Peter Gordon by Spartan

A shot of Peter with sword -- I've only ever seen this pose in very poor quality before (which I posted here in November of 2007) -- nice to finally find an excellent clear scan!

Merry Christmas to all those beautiful men whose names are lost to time...

...we love you and hope you had wonderful lives! Happy Christmas, everyone!

Peter Gordon by Spartan - a few final shots...

Here are the last five poses I have of the beautiful Peter Gordon. I hope you have enjoyed this look at Spartan's most famous model!

Everett Sinderoff by Lon of NY

Everett was a Junior Mr. America in 1946, and he continued to compete at least until 1949 (with thanks to Muscle Memory). The first shot here is by Lon of NY, while the next two are by an unknown photographer. They look like they might have been taken behind the scenes at a competition.

Bob McCune by AMG, Warner and Spartan

When I started my email group at Yahoo 6 years, this photo of Bob McCune by AMG was the first picture I posted there. He exemplified the type of man I hoped to see more of as the group progressed. I wanted the group to focus on true physique photos, and not just old sex snaps that were the focus of so many other groups. I soon expanded the scope of the group, but I still prefer this kind of thing! The v-m-p group isn't quite as active as it used to be, but every now and then we receive some great physique finds!

Bob was one of those athletes who entered several contests but never hit the "big time" -- at least as far as trophies go. He did make the covers of the leading muscle mags in 1949 and 1950, and of course was a favorite of physique mag followers for years!

Charlie Baunhoe by Bob Anthony

The model's name was written on the back of the photo -- it may even be "Baunhol." Bob Anthony was a New York photographer of the 60s, known more for his nude work than for this kind of thing. Though, for all I know, this could have been the first in a series of shots that saw Charlie eventually in the buff. I kinda like to think he kept that wrap on, though!
