Bob Bishop, from photographer Roy Dean – very Frank Lloyd Wright stone, right?

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.

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.
