1980s Porn Star Day


It's 1980s porn star day, and we start with Todd Nugent and his very yellow towel.

 

Connor Richards


This is Connor Richards from 1980.

 

Frank Vickers


It was November of 1981 when this picture of Frank Vickers appeared in Numbers magazine.  I was not familiar with that publication until I looked it up for this blog post.  How did I miss that?



 

Eric Ryan


We get a pleasant smile from Eric Ryan who appeared in Honcho in September of 1980.

 

Dinner at Eight


All I have on this one is that it's from a piece called Dinner at Eight
 from the January, 1983 edition of Torso.

 

Glen, Michael, and Jimmy


These three are (from the top, clockwise) Glenn Steers, Michael Christopher, and Jimmy Metz.
You'll be seeing Jimmy solo a bit later in today's set.  I'm quite taken with Glen.

 

Nick Chase


My source said that this twofer of Nick Chase is by Colt.

 

Counselor


I found this guy in my 80s file with the only identifying item being the word "Counselor."
Anybody know him?  I'd really like to see more of his work.

 

Chris from Arizona


This model from the January, 1980 edition of Mandate
was only identified as Chris from Arizona.

 

Jimmy Metz II


Jimmy Metz appears solo in this splashy 1985 number from Fox.

 

Jess Stone


This fellow popping out of his jeans is Jess Stone.

 

Charley Smith


Closing the series with Charlie Smith from the May 1981 edition of Mandate.
Not that anyone is looking, but the sofa doilies seem way out of place.

Jean Ferrero Day


We are way overdue for a Jean Ferraro series,
so let's start with Eddie Spremberg.

 

Hubert


The only name I could find for this handsome fellow is "Hubert."

 

Evrard Meyssin


Here we see Evrard Meyssin with a homemade bow, a prop Jean Ferrero used 
on a number of occasions including the duo shot which follows in today's set.

 

Unknown X 2


Although they look familiar, I haven't been able to find names for these two.

 

Christian Dancale


Try as I might, this is the only vintage photo of Christian Dancale I could fine.  Sad, that.

 

Bud Lanter


Based on the large number of photos he took of Bud Lanter,
I'd say this model was one of Jean Ferrero's favorites.

 

Unusual


This Jean Ferrero photo is unusual for two reasons.  First, it is an action athletic shot of sorts, 
and second, the model is one of a fairly limited number of unknowns by this photographer.

 

Daniel Cartier


I like the classic Gallic facial profile in this shot of Daniel Cartier.

 

Mick Belloucy


The rocky landscape and scrubby trees in this photo of Mick Belloucy 
are classic elements of Jean Ferrero's Mediterranean style.





 

Paul Poronides


Closing with one of my very favorite Jean Ferrero models, Paul Poronides.
My collection, alas, contains only eight photos of this fine specimen.

Things are going swimmingly, Part 1 - Skinny Dippers


Today's series is a two parter about swimmers, and we start with skinny dippers.
I have to say that even after a decade of blogging this stuff, pictures like
this one bring a big smile to my face. I'd love to join them.

 

Mystery


I don't know what that is they're holding, but they seem to be having fun.



 

Mid-20th Century


This group looks Mid-20th Century.


 

Three moons


I read a science fiction book once about a planet that had three moons
which caused all sorts of crazy tidal disruptions

 

Drying off


Our last group of skinny dippers are drying off at the edge of the woods.
Up next, men in stripes.

 

Things are going swimmingly, Part 2 - Stripes


As many of you know, I have a "thing" for vintage men in striped bathing suits, 
and part two of today's set features some.  We start with two fellows whose
 bathing attire seems to bring our focus to a certain part of the body.

 

Tanned legs


This guy has legs that are quite tanned, but his torso is not.
He probably followed the convention of the time an wore a top on the beach.

 

Duo II


Our second pair has contrasting body types and strip widths.
The one at left needs his tummy rubbed.

 

Interesting arrangement


This solo striped swimmer has an interesting arrangement in his midsection.

 

Duo III


Our final duo posed by some reeds, and the fellow on the right went topless,
something that was generally not done outside of an all male group.
