Ed Fury, Sword and Sandal Movie Star


Quite a few of the LA based physique models aspired to movie careers, and Ed Fury 
(born Rupert Edmund Holovchik) was one of a very few who actually made one.  He started as a competitive bodybuilder and his promotional photo shoots led to a notable modeling career in which he was known to have posed for Bob Mizer of AMG and Bruce of LA.  Today I am featuring some photos of Ed from my "unattributed" files, but I think I figured out who did one of them.
We start with an interesting semi-profile on a rocky beach.

  3. I saw Airplane at the famous ODEON in Leicester Square. When it came to that line, the entire place collapsed in laughter and an American sitting behind me said, "That wouldn't have been allowed if President Reagan was alive", which caused even more spasms of uncontrolled mirth.
