Hairy Derriere Day

A few weeks ago I ran a hairy men series, and I promised our friend Albert the Gay Belgian 

that I would put on a hairy derriere series, so here it is.  We start with an 

unknown model from the March, 1984 edition of Honcho.

 

Jeff Cameron

This is supposed to be Jeff Cameron.

 

Sideburns

The sideburns are a secondary element here.

 

Lou Marshall

Here we see Lou Marshall by AMG.

 

Colt

I think this is from Jim French's early days at Colt.

 

Happy Trails

Is there such a thing has happy trails on the back?

 

Earl Lawrence

That's Earl Lawrence at right with an unknown (to me, anyway) friend in the AMG shower.

 

Hanging in the Dunes

This guy is sort of hanging out in the dunes.

 

Laura Ashley

If I haven't already posted this guy and his Laura Ashley wallpaper, I should have.

 

Mateus?

Is that a bottle of Mateus in the fridge door?

 

Questionable

This was listed as vintage on a dodgy website,

but I'm including it despite my doubts.

The reason should be obvious.

 

Blogger Favorites II - Early 20th Century

For the second installment of my favorite photos by type, we look at the early 20th Century.

We start with a French physical education photo that might be by Prof. Desbonnet.

 

Leopold Mercier

These two wrestlers were photographed by Leopold Mercier in 1900.

 

Swimmers

I go goofy for vintage men in striped bathing suits,

but I wouldn't mind seeing Mr. Left without his.

Can I have it both ways, please?

 

Sturdy and Confident

This isn't the best photo in any technical sense, but the sturdy

 build of the man and his confidence come shining through.

 

Atelier 1910

All I know about this one is that it came labeled "Atelier 1910."

 

Maurice Deriaz

When I last posted this 1902 Hercules themed photo, I mentioned that it might have been one of the Deriaz Brothers.  Turns out that it was Maurice Deriaz with an unexpected mustache.

 

Two sides

 

This is one of those "best of both worlds" photos that gets front and back in one shot.

Unexpected choice

More than a few of you are probably looking at this and wondering how it made a blogger favorites series.  Well, there's something about the happy looking fisherman that makes want to know him.  This working man is obviously comfortable in his own skin and exudes a special kind of masculinity.

 

Socks

When I first saw a thumbnail of this one, I thought he was wearing gladiator sandals.

On closer examination, however, I saw they were striped socks and fell in love.

 

Tumblr Snag

The last image in this round of early 19th Century favorites is from an long disappeared tumblr 

blog called Antique Erotic.  It was a very well curated operation, and I miss it terribley.  

I'm sure there's a Classical reference there somewhere, but it's lost on me.

 

Models Named Tom

Today's physique models have one thing in common besides being attractive and well built men.  

They are all named Tom.  I'm posting them in alphabetical order by photographer,

and we start with Tom Douglas by AMG's Bob Mizer.

 

Bruce of LA

Tom Mathews went on an outing to the California desert 

for this photo by Bruce Bellas, aka Bruce of LA.

 

John Graham

British photographer John Graham photographed Tom Knott (left) with an unknown model.

I posted this six years ago and thought it was worth a repeat.  I think they are beautiful.

 

Kris Studio

Chuck Renslow of Kris Studio photographed several 

models named Tom, and this one is Tom Muscolino.

 

Dave Martin

Tom West posed for Dave Martin in 1965 in a photo

 that seems better each time I look at it.

 

Scott Masters

Tom Darrin looks serious in this Scott Masters photo.

 

Metecue

We get a nice happy trail and a smile in this Metecue photo of Tom Pryor.

 

Pat Milo

Not that long ago, I posted a different Pat Milo photo of Tom Nevins.

I wish I had more than just two images of him.

 

Troy Saxon

Tom Pollack posed for Troy Saxon in the woods with a bamboo staff.

 

Unknown Photographer

I couldn't do a series on models named Tom without including Tom De Carlo.  I'm using this unattributed photo for two reasons.  First, I'm hoping someone knows the photographer,

and second, it's one of only a few photos of him that I haven't already posted.
