MALES in USA
back cover of one of the Males In USA publications put out by JDC Studios (Cadinot) – these one featuring the work of Jon Target (Target Studios) – model Brand (and here – Brand) – if you search “BRAND” on BJland you’ll get too any results, so I’ve linked 2 / 3 = including his AKA Brahm Van Zetten – I’m pretty sure the setting is Fire Island.
If I remember correctly, there might also be ROGER, Boyd Winner, and other models you’ve likely seen from Target.

quick pause – this is a work in progress; been in drafts folder for years, and figured, flesh out what you can, add in the cover pics, and add stuff as you learn more (from you guys, if you have any of these issues) I think this is a great series, devoted almost entirely to photography, pulled from the pages of In Touch For Men, but also shots that didn’t make it into the monthly, and then some more from studios like COSCO (there’s a lot of COSCO – yippee!). 14 issues in total, through 1980. (and as soon as I hit “publish” I see a lot of cleanup/editing to do!)
