Jack LaLanne

I hope to obtain a larger version of this photograph of Jack LaLanne on the cover of the July, 1954 issue of Strength and Health magazine.

Barton Horvath

Barton Horvath was one of the most photographed bodybuilders of the 1930's and '40's, making him quite famous, despite the fact he rarely competed.

He wrote for various fitness magazines and started publishing his own magazine, MUSCLE SCUPTURE, in 1957.

I am tracking down more images of this handsome man.

George Sheffield's well-balanced physique is a masterpiece.  It is little wonder he won the titles Mr. Southern California in 1960 and Mr. California in 1962.

George Eiferman looks like a Titan on the cover of the August, 1951 issue of Strength and Health.
