Sunbath Day

Today we peep at some sunbathers.  I hope these World War II Germans weren't picking lice.

 

Mattress

That looks like an odd type of air mattress.

I'm sure it had many uses.

 

AMG Production

This one is no doubt part of some elaborate Bob Mizer AMG production.

The variation in tan levels and lines is interesting.

 

Beefy

Despite the complete lack of nudity, I like this shot of a beefy guy.

 

Viewer submission

Viewer Thad R. from Wichita sent me this photo of a pale dude sprawled in the sun.

 

Treatment

This looks like one of those treatments for miners or others who work in the dark.

 

Jolly Aussie

This jolly guy is an Australian naturist.

 

Army blanket

I hope this guy on an army blanket in the middle of nowhere hasn't fallen asleep in the sun.

 

Applying themselves

These two are applying lotion, and I hope the guy at right is using a high SPF.

He looks like could burn rather easily.

 

Foreign Legion?

Our last group of sunbathers make me think of the French Foreign Legion.

 

Men with Beards Day

Today's theme is men with beards, and we start with a guy outdoors who looks Latino.

John Skaggs

This is the only model today for whom I have an ID, 

and he's John Skaggs as photographed by Bruce of LA.

 

AMG

Surely one of you AMG experts can name the model here.

 

Color

Our only color photo of the day has a guy on an ottoman

with a painting of naked female off to the side.

 

Close cropped

This guy was either new to beards of liked the close-cropped look.

 

Nature boy

I wish I had a clearer image of this nature boy.

 

Had to be 1970

This had to be 1970.

 

Sophisticated

Our last bearded guy seems to be going for the sophisticated look.

 

Hairy Wrestlers Day

It's time for another look at some pro wrestlers from the 50s, 60s, and 70s.

We start with Bruno Sammartino in a dingy hotel room.

Photo is by Lee Friedlander from 1960.

 

Don Kernodle

I really like this photo of Don Kernodle.

 

Jerry Lawler

This is Jerry Lawler early in his career.  He ditched the body 

and facial hair later on, but I like this version far more.

 

Dee Exx Contribution

Dee Exx sent me this intriguing photo of what looks like an unidentified father/son team.

If you Google the concept, several family sets turn up.

Thanks, Dee!

 

Pretty Boy Fulton

I could only find one photo of Pretty Boy Fulton.

 

Dan Plechas and Mike Dibiase

Dan Bulldog Plechas and Mike Dibiase were tag team partners 

when this 1958 photo was made in Amarillo.

 

Larry Henning

This handsome fellow is Larry "The Axe" Henning.

 

Dennis Condrey

Dennis Condrey used the nickname "Loverboy."

 

Pampero Firpo

Italian import Pampero Firpo specialized in wild man schtick.

 

Thor Hager

Our last hairy wrester is Thor Hager from 1961.
