This is Tom De Carlo, photographer unknown, at least to me.

Photo by John Palatinus, mid 1950s.
ReplyDeleteThanks, James! I need to know more about this photographer.
DeleteThank you James and Jerry for the information about this beautiful picture. What a gorgeous hunk! There appears to be quite a lot online about John Palatinus, so it would be good to see some more of his work on both of your blogs. One of my favourite photos of all time is Jerry Hardy by John Palatinus from 1958. It is the well-known photo of a bare bottomed sailor with a cheeky smile. Fabulous!
DeleteI'll have to see if I have that in my files, Phil.
DeleteJerry- Was Tom a sailor ? He looks burly enough. and he looks the part.
