One of my favorite couple of boys (mid 60's). Blackie was Narcissus.Pretty narcissus on the pool.
And John is so hot... His curves, his smile, so beefy and blue... Poor John!

I encountered Blackie Preston in the army (Ft. Knox, KY) in 1969. He was acting as some kind of clerk at the time and had a limp, suggesting that he had been wounded (Vietnam?). I didn't reveal that I recognized him from his modeling work.
