Nudist Volleyball Day

 

Volleyball is hands down the most popular sporting activity in my extensive archive of nudist photos.  And why not, there are lots of bouncing things to see besides the big white ball.

Germans?

I have a feeling these may be Germans on holiday in some warm weather country.

 

Tall guy

Tall guys have an advantage at volleyball, especially if they can jump.

 

Serving

Most casual volleyball players use the underhanded serve, as seen here.

Most do not,however, do it in the nude.

 

Only clear item

The only clear item in this photo is the man's behind,

but that's all many of you want to see anyway.

 

Beach Crowd

The dunes make a nice backdrop for this crowded beach volleyball scene.

 

Waiting

Sometimes one has to just wait there for something to happen.

That was the part of volleyball I was best at.

 

Stretch

They may have called this guy Stretch . . . or Daddy Long Legs.

 

At the net

All the action here seems to be at the net.

 

Man about the camp

I'm ending the volleyball set with a young man who appears in a number of mid-1960s nudist photos.  He was quite popular, having won at least one pageant prize, as well as appearing on a decorating committee, a welcoming delegation, and other functions.  If there is interest, I may give him his own mini-series here on the blog.

 

New Finds Day

Lately there have been some nice items from the classic physique era come on the resale market, and today I am posting ten recent finds.  We start with Andy McCullar by Frank Collier of Art-Kraft.

 

Arthur by Lon

This is Arthur Mason as photographed by Alonzo Hanagan under his Lon of Olympia marque.

 

Unknown X 2

I have neither a photographer not a model named for this one.

 

Mike by Vic

English photographer Vic White took this picture of Mike Tozer.  Mr. White worked 

in the Portsmouth area, and many of his models are said to have been Royal Navy men.

 

Glenn by Clifford

This woodland scene is Glenn Bishop by Clifford Oettinger.

 

Unknown by Vulcan

I have to admit that I am quite taken with this new find unknown mature model by Vulcan.

 

Bert and Alan

Bert Goodrich, Mr. America 1939 (left) shakes hands with Mr. America 1946, Alan Stephan. 

The photo is by an unknow staff photographer for the LA Daily News.

Leopard print brief trunks must have been in style that year.

 

Bob by Ralph

I was delighted to come across this "new" photo of Bob Cutlass by Ralph Kelly.

 

Unknown X 2 . . . again

For the second time today, both the model and the photographer are unknown.

 

Paul by Dave

Closing out the series with a great photo of Paul Simone by Dave Martin.

 

Polaroid Day

It's time for another set of Polaroid images.  Some of today's offerings, like this one, approach professional level in terms of image quality, models, and composition.  Others, not so much.

 

Dizzy

That 1970s wallpaper will make you dizzy if you look at it long enough.

The model will not doubt have the same effect on some of you.

 

Backside

This man has some decent back muscle development,

but that probably isn't what most of you are looking at.

 

Streaks

I couldn't do this series without at least one Polaroid showing the streaks and blotches inherent 

in the application of the fixer at the end of the development process.  The mode is looking

 at a girlie magazine which does not seem to have had much effect on him so far.

 

Beer or soda?

I"m not entirely sure if that's a beer or a soda in the model's hand.

Given the usual circumstances of such photo shoots, I'll go with beer.

 

Reviewing

This young man has apparently been reviewing the Polaroids already made of him.

 

Candid

The image quality is crappy here, but we do get a candid shot of a guy in the shower.

 

Ditch the shirt

I know some viewers like the half dressed or mostly undressed look. but I wish 

this fellow would ditch the shirt so we could see the rest of his chest hair.

 

Not too convincing

This guy is not too convincing with the he-man flex,

but the furry legs and bottom make up for it.

 

That look

I can't figure out the facial expression on our last Polaroid hero.

He's either pensive or not too happy about something.
