Alan Brian by Spectrum



The wonderful WB shared this color slide scan with me about four years back -- from a series of fifteen that appeared on my old website. Good buddy Chuck followed up that posting a year later with some wonderful sleuthing that never made it online, until now. Better late than never, I hope?

I haven't visited your site in quite a while, Alan. I saw the update page containing photos of Alan Brian by Spectrum. For those interested, 'Alan Brian' first posed under the name 'Al Brijunas', which may be his birth name.

The cover of 'Tomorrow's Man', Vol. 1 No. 3, from March, 1953, features Al Brijunas in a photo credited to Irv Johnson.

'Tomorrow's Man', Vol. 1 No. 10, November, 1953, features Al Brijunas in a photo by Spectrum. This same photo will later be published as 'Alan Brian' by Spectrum and, in fact, is included on your website page. [attachment]

Cliff Oettinger also photographed Al Brijunas. An example of those photographs may be found in 'Tomorrow's Man', Vol. 2 No. 10, October, 1954, and 'Tomorrow's Man', Vol. 3 No. 1, January, 1955.

What an amazing specimen of manhood! Just look at those eyes, those lips, that chin! (Okay, you can look elsewhere, as well!)

Many, many thanks to our good buddy Robert for sharing these two pics!

Robert also posed for AMG, Bruce of LA, and, spectacularly, both solo and with his brother Bill for Pat Milo!
