Looking to the queer past with an eye on photos, magazines, postcards: anything that speaks to us. We're interested in physique photography, gay pulps, vintage erotica, snapshots, and ephemera. Some items are available for purchase.

Two More: Vintage Muscle Men
These pretty much speak for themselves. Or is it that they leave me speechless?
From the album of real photo postcards collected by Albert Edward Pritchard, they were taken by P. W. Luton and date from the 1920s.
To me, it looks like the front view, the posing strap was drawn or painted on at a later time to avoid any issue with nudity with law enforcement and or the postal service.
