I'm not sure who the model is (Aberg?), but while doing Google Images searches to find out, I learned that the weights at his feet were called a Milo barbells. Pat Milo's real name was James Patrick, so did he borrow his trade name from a brand of barbells? Stranger things have happened.
Which? The barbells or the guy's behind?

Have another photo of this fellow, full name as Aleksander Aberg from Estonia, and a notation he was protege of Georg Lurich
ReplyDeleteI thought it might be him. Thanks!
DeleteThat's interesting. So Pat Milo and the barbell company may be named after a Greek athlete.
