Victor Romano Photographed by the Athletic Model Guild

I must thank a generous fan of this blog for this photograph of Victor Romano taken by the Athletic Model Guild.

I had Romano in my "unknown models" pile, until I spotted him in the top, left corner of page 148 in Taschen’s AMG: 1000 Model Directory.

Unknown Model

I don't know who took this photograph of this handsome model.

Elmer Matt and Ed Fury Photographed by Bruce of Los Angeles

When I obtained this photograph in the series of Elmer Matt battling Ed Fury taken by Bruce of Los Angeles, I realized I'd misidentified Matt as another physique model throughout the blog.

I've corrected those images, which you can see when you click on Matt's name label directly below this post.

Jack Le Van Photographed by the Athletic Model Guild

Jack Le Van was removed from my "unknown model" pile this past weekend, while I was at the Bob Mizer Foundation and sorting through several negatives of him taken by Denny Denfield, who had written Le Van's name on many of the plastic sleeves protecting the negatives.

When you jump to this post on my Mike The Content Producer blog, you can read a bit about my on-going gig archiving Denny Denfield's negatives at the Foundation.

And when you click on Le Van's name label directly below this post, you can see more images of this handsome model.

Jack Harte Photographed by Bruce of Los Angeles

I must thank a fan of this blog who lives in South Africa for this photograph of Jack Harte.

Harpo Photographed by Denny Denfield

Perhaps, only other collectors can appreciate the delight I feel when I remove a model from the "unknown models" pile.

As you might already know, I'm sorting Denny Denfield's negatives. Written on the plastic sleeves of several negatives Denfield took of this spectacular model is his name, Harpo.

If you haven't yet and are interested, jump to this post on my Mike The Content Producer blog, where you can read a bit about my on-going gig archiving Denny Denfield's negatives at the Bob Mizer Foundation.

When you click on Harpo's name label directly below this post, you can see two more images of this bodybuilder. I have a few more that I'll add to the blog in due course.
