When I go looking for G-rated photos of classic physique era bodybuilders, the mainstream fitness magazines of the 40's and 50's are usually a great source, but not when it comes to African-American men. Due to the prevailing social attitudes and prejudices of that time, one only very rarely finds them in publications. They were there, though, and fortunately some photographers found them and photographed them. We start the G series with Chris Dickerson by Lon of New York.
