Peekaboo Underwear Day

I got a request some time ago from viewer Victorian Barbarian for some men

in underwear with peekaboo views. (Sorry I took so long, VB, but better

late than never.) We start with what appears to be a barracks audiophile

named Ken with a pipe and a reel-to-reel tape unit.

Horseplay

Here we have some horseplay with a bit of a reveal.

T-shirt

Those of you who fancy t-shirts as underwear will probably like this solo shot.

Bunk Buddies

Mr. Scumbeast called this one Bunk Buddies.

Fun group

Even though the peekaboo is utterly minimal,

I had to include this fun loving group.

Squirrel Shoot

My high school buddies called this type of view "shooting squirrels."

They were referring to girls in miniskirts, though.

Trio

While it's easy to get preoccupied with the boxers and the guns,

the footwear in this photo is worth a look.

Cowboy Boots

I'd love to know what Timmons was the champ of, but we do know that he posed

for his picture in cowboy boots and boxers with a partially open fly.

Tobruk 1941

This last one isn't a peekaboo fly shot, but we do get a nice view of the soldier

at left's bottom. The men were Australian troops at Tobruk in 1941.

Thanks again to Victorian Barbarian for suggesting today's theme.

Valentine's Day, Part 1 - Nude Pairs

For Valentine's Day, I'm posting a two part series. Part one is the usual nudes, and part two is made up of some clothed, but interesting and attractive couples. We start with a Colt image.

Bedroom

Two fine derrieres in this bedroom photo.

Valentine Bouquet

Von Gloeden photographed these two sharing a bouquet.

Staged

This one was obviously staged, but the play fighting is charming.

Blanket Buddies

The crossed legs of these two on a blanket tell us something.

Not models?

I get the feeling that our last nude couple were not professional models.

Valentine's Day, Part 2 - G-Rated, but Special

Part two of our Valentine set features some interesting G-rated photos.

Yes, there were gay hippies. I knew quite a few.

Tchaikovsky and Kotek

The gentleman at right is the great composer Pyotr Ilych Tchaikovsky, and his companion

is Iosif Kotek, a violinist with whom he had a tumultuous romance with in the 1870s.

Snapshot

This snapshot from the 1950s is heartwarming.

1975

I hope the two men in this 1975 photo lived to see the day they could really get married.

These two are Prince Valdemar of Denmark (left) and Prince George of Greece. Valdemar was George's uncle, and the two are widely believed to have been long term lovers. They both married women and had children, but it was clear to most observers that they cared most for each other.

The Best

I saved what I think is the absolute best Valentine picture for last. They are simply beautiful.

And if any of you digital sleuths want to tell me it's AI, don't. For once, I don't want to know.

Arax Day

Its Arax of Paris day, and we start with a photo of Paul Wynter, winner of Mr. Universe in 1960 and 1966. Standing only 5'8" tall and weighing 180 lbs., he was long considered the best proportioned man in competitive bodybuilding. He also made several Sword and Sandal movies.
