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.

I started the post with just the top image – my favorite, but thought that’s not enough! Below, my 2nd favorite image from the magazine (such a furry crotch!!!); then a handful more for you to enjoy.

another post languishing in drafts folder, let’s hit “publish” and sort it out later! I know there’s a 1995 MANSHOTS interview (2 parts) that I’d like to add or make separate post, but let’s not wait til I get a roundtuit.

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.

Apparently I’ve posted one of these photos before – love on the piers – by Gay Television Pioneer Lou Maletta (and photographer!), from the February 1980 issue of Honcho magazine.

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?
