Tom de Carlo








This is Tom de Carlo, of whom I know nothing but suspect he modeled during the late 1950's and early 1960's, based on the dates of the magazines I've seen him in.

Raul Pacheco









Raul Pacheco was a bodybuilder featured in muscle magazines dated from the 1950's.

The photo showing his reflection is my favorite of him.

Pat Milo Photographs Al Agar and Bill Coates



Here are three photographs by Pat Milo, arguably one of the most revered beefcake photographers.

Al Agar is laughing behind the camera, while Milo captured Bill Coates twice in the outdoors.

I have many more photographs by Milo and will post them soon.

Ed Fury












Ed Fury, whose real name was Ed Holovchik, was one of the 1950's most photographed beefcake models for obvious reasons. He appears in some of my favorite photographs in Bob Mizer's Physique Pictorial and Bruce of Los Angeles' The Male Figure.

David Zurborg

































David Zurbog was one of the first vintage beefcake models to catch my eye. I think he is the embodiment of Mid-Century America.

He is the cover model on Volume 11 of The Male Figure, published in 1958 by Bruce of Los Angeles.

Phil Knight is the model tangling David up in rope.
