Pat Rocco Day

It's Pat Rocco Day, and we begin with this shot of a young man 

on a pole wearing knee boots.  It seems a bit "off the cuff" to me.

 

Artistic

This is one of Mr. Rocco's more artistic efforts, 

but I don't have names for the models.  Anyone?

 

Love Is Blue

Although the blue overlay goes with the movie title, I prefer the photo without it.

 

Shawn Zee

Shawn Zee is usually seen in tandem with Richard Jalakas, aka Bill Voldemar,

but I was pleased to find this rough draft contact sheet solo shot of him.

 

Paul Stevens

This handsome hunk is Paul Stevens.

 

Bill and Shawn

The blond is Richard Jalakas, aka Bill Voldemar, 

and the black fellow is only known as Shawn Zee.

 

Alan Dark

This photo of Alan Dark in a drying mud flat was part of a Pat Rocco photo catalog.

 

Boy Play

Beauty Contest

Pat Rocco's SPREE organization was always holding beauty contests.

 

Pat Rocco Dares

Pat Rocco did not shy away from using full nudity 

in his movie ads, but he held back for this one.

 

Myselfixion Day

One of my favorite bloggers, myselfixion, is back at it on tumblr with his usual eclectic offerings.  Those now include frontal nudity as tumblr has finally relented on their ill-conceived ban of such.

We start a series of 12 borrowed items with a fellow in the shower in December of 1960.

 

January/February 1973

No name for the publication, but this was page 27 of the January/February 1973 edition.

 

Hitchcock

Why am I suddenly thinking of Alfred Hitchcock?

 

Happy shaver

Thank goodness he's leaving the mustache alone.

 

Pipe smoker

Some guys think pipe smokers are sexy,

but those shorts steal the show in this one.

 

Transactional

For some reason, I think there might have been a financial transaction involved here.

 

Relaxing

For this guy relaxing means a smoke, a drink, and sitting on the couch in his drawers.

The dog is probably hoping he drops the drink so he can lap it up.

 

World War I?

This one resembles some World War I U.S. Army Signal Corps photos in my collection.

 

Reclining

1939

I often find good underwear photos on myselfixion, and I really 

like this one from 1939.  A nice shirt like that is always a bonus.

 

Brothers?

Is it just me, or do these two look like brothers?

 

December 1963

Finishing with an item stamped December 1963.  The book cover says "Skins."

Pretty advanced for '63.  Visit myselfixion at:

Rod Crowther Day

It's Rod Crowther day, and we start with this unknown 

model who appears in a number of his pictures.

 

Joe Priest

Rod Crowther used a striped curtain for a backdrop in this photo of Joe Priest.

 

Joe Seivold

College lacrosse star Joe Seivold did a memorable photo shoot with Rod Crowther.

He didn't pose frontally nude, alas, but he impresses anyway.

 

Jack Craig and Bill Labette

Ken Steele

Ken Steele looks serious perched on that rock.

 

Looking Skyward

The natural light is nice in this shot of an unknown looking skyward.

 

David Allen

David Allen is either getting in or getting out of his tightie whities.

 

Strader

Ending the Rod Crowther series with a model only shown as Strader.
