1913

Here we see Sweden's combined swimming and water polo national team from 1913.

 

Relaxing

This is how Swedish men relax in the sauna.

 

Polar Bear

This brave polar bear had his picture taken in January 1902

at one of Stockholm's floating bath houses.

 

Horsemen

Closing the Swedish series with a group of cavalrymen I borrowed from Bob's Naked Guys.

Odds and Ends Again

It's time for another round of stray odds and ends. 

This happy group is a 1930s German water polo team.

 

Cleo Scrum

The Australian version of Playgirl, Cleo, published this naked rugby scrum in the 70s.

 

Fujuki Hatori

This is a hand tinted photo of two Japanese dancers by Fujuki Hatori.

 

Bored

I don't know why, but I find this very bored looking guy to be quite attractive.

 

Above the Sea

 

This is supposed to be a European naturist on a naked hike above the sea.

Cooling Off

These guys are cooling off in the outflow from a small dam.

 

Dutch TV

Here's something that actually appeared on Dutch TV in 1972.  

I'd like it better if the violinist had his pants off, too, but whatever.

 

1946

This sailor getting a sunbath in his jockstrap is from 1946.

 

Duo

These two men on a print sofa don't seem to have anything

 to do with each other, at lease so far.

 

Rock

I have no information about the final photo of a man on a rock, but I like it.

 

Dick Day

It's Dick Day, but it isn't what most of you are probably thinking.  All of today's models are 

named Dick, and you won't even be seeing the referenced anatomy on some of them.  

We start the show with the first of several Dave Martin photos, Dick Scott with a chain.

 

Mr. Dene

Here's one of Bruce's shots of Dick Dene that I haven't posted before.

 

Mr. Norman

We get an irresistable smile from Dick Norman in one 

of three Dave Martin photos in today's series.

 

Mr. Redwood

Swedish studio Foto Grafo was the origin of this shot of Dick Redwood.

 

Mr. Knight

Dick Knight posed outdoors on a picnic set bench for Bruce of LA.

 

Mr. Hofeditz

I was very pleased to find this photo of Dick Hofeditz by John Arnt,

a Seattle photographer whose work is rare and quite good.

 

Mr. Spero

Bruce's ranchito was the setting for this shot of Dick Spero.

 

Mr. Ludolph

Dave Martin took this excellent picture of Dick Ludolph,

 an impressive model whose work I wish I had more of.

 

Mr. Harrison

I get the feeling that Dick Harrison could be a showoff, but if you've got it . . .

Although not formally attributed, I think this is by AMG.

 

Mr. Stark

The gym shorts afficionados (you know who you are) will no doubt 

enjoy this Champion Studio photo of college athlete Dick Stark.

 

Mr. Pardee

Bruce of Los Angeles photographed Dick Pardee in leopard skin briefs.

 

Mr. Buchholts

Our last model named Dick is Dick Buckholts, whose name I have seen spelled four different ways.  

The photo, of course, is by the immortal Doug Juleff, aka Douglas of Detroit.
