Glen Bishop - Cliff Oettinger Poster

I bought this a few years ago. A rare poster printed by Cliff Oettinger and from what I am told, presented as a gift to Glenn Bishop. He didn't care for it and it ended up with his son, who sold it to the person I bought it from. I also bought ledger-sized prints of Bishop from him too...some of the largest I've seen for sale. This photo is from the same park series but is a rarity as far as I can tell. This measures 32.5 in. by 65 in. Printed by Oettinger when he worked in sales/advertising and had access to the paper and ability to develop such a large piece.

Benny Baumann

New photograph I acquired - unknown model and photographer. The back says Benny Baumann - could be him. With a bit of comparison, possibly around 1940s and the name could also be Ben Bauman. A stunning photo, beautifully shot!

The Modern Male Physique and Bob Delmonteque

I now have a rare 1953 publication by Bob Delmonteque featuring "censored" images from his various collaborators, including Dave Martin. Thirty-five photos of Bob - great poses. It served as a way for Bob to have people see a selection of photographs that they could purchase by reaching out to him. Of course, the photos you would receive would not be censored. The Modern Male Physique by Bob Delmonteque $10 - PDF version Paypal or CashApp- please include your email address (with spaces around the "@") I'll send a link to download the PDF! Just tell me which items you'd like.

Lon of New York

Lon Hannagan was based in New York and was one of the first physique photographers to capture black and latino models. The large Italian immigrant population of NYC also provided an ample supply of models. Here is my latest purchase. Note the editing of the photo so that mailing it would not violate any obscenity laws.
