muscle buddies

I am surprised I haven’t previously noted this photographer – Jerry Buzzelli – as I’ve seen his name in Numbers (like here, October 1980 edition), Honcho, and Mandate at the very least. And these models – I wouldn’t doubt that Numbers had a special edition dedicated to this pair – but I just can’t find it.



oh – that didn’t take long – I guess a special edition had these boys on the cover – plus some more inside – i dig the “gym” theme!


gulp.
i think this last one is my favorite.

HIM monthly

Just acquired an American issued copy of HIM Monthly – this from 1980. This top pic grabbed my attention because, at first glance – yup. But no.

Short post – photography by Alan Purnell, who I’m anxious to learn more about, as he is also a director, and editor of the HIM magazines.

masculin international


I love the MASCULIN INTERNATIONAL magazine series – with handsome models photographed by the likes of Malcolm Hoare (the photographer for this issue featured here), Roy Dean, Jon Target, (maybe or maybe not Jean-Daniel Cadinot??) and Roy Blakey (there may be more); the tone is more sexy than sex, and that’s OK! So, I had a digital version of Masculin International 6, but saw a copy online for sale/auction and wanted to be able to scan better quality versions. Also, side note – notice the 4 men featured on the back? No pic of super sexy model Joe Porcelli (called Paul here)!! What’s with that? Anyway, I probably scanned the entire magazine before I realized something was up. The quality seemed off, so I looked for my digital file that I’ve had, and … WHAT?? Same number of pages, but the contrast was murkier – perhaps something that a generic photoshop can adjust but…. my hard copy only had 4 color pages – Front & Back covers, and 2 – page centerfold of the cover model; the old digital version had 5 additional pages in color, plus maybe 2-3 partial color pages! What gives???

or, rather, WTF?
