HIM International #7 (1977) – photos from Man’s Image
previously:
Apparently, there’s more than one HANK on BJland – but feel free to click the link and check out all of them. These photos are from MEN of MAN’S IMAGE, which seems like a compilation, so I imagine HANK appears elsewhere, as well. I am fairly sure he is “just” a print model.
I love this photo of Max, (AKA BIG MAX) from the February 1979 Honcho…. but……
the original, from a year prior, in THE PHYSICAL MAN #6 (1978), gives more space, negative space, black space, whatever you want to call it, to the image – HONCHO crops part of Max’s left foot; the original you can see his entire foot, and you can more easily see why the right foot is partially hidden – in the black cloth/covering on the ground. The top image I scanned from my own copy of HONCHO, and I only cropped out the whited edge of the photo. Alas, my Physical Man image is from somewhere on the internet, not nearly as high quality, but definately, to me, the better framed version. Oh, and HONCHO credits “Man’s Image” for photography, but the original in Physical Man #6 actually credits the human beings – Carlo Palermo and Francesco Barone as the photographers.

Vol 1, No 1
anyone remember this post? Good. Then I don’t feel so bad. I did in fact have the magazine scanned, but, alas, the settings were way off and many of the photos were too dark.
It was primarily a personal ads magazine (probably 40-50% of the magazine)- with some very nice Man’s Image photography (maybe 22 pages, including front and back covers); and maybe 15-20% “regular” advertising like other magazines, erection “assistance” products. Let’s see, Gordon Grant, Big Luke, Bart.. a couple others. So this will have to do, as I don’t feel like digging up the hard copy, looking for the scanner, and re-doing, ok?
