Medical text


I think this is from an Eastern European medical text.
The bar across the eyes reminds me of 1920s porn.

  2. "Svaly a plastika trupu" translates from Czech to "Muscles and torso sculpting"

  3. another anonymous (not the same of the preceding comment), yes, it is czech, I ran a test to check if it could be slovak, but it is czech 100%.
    Note is the early 80's it was published in communist czechoslovaquia a book called "anatomie pro výtvarníky" (anatomy for artists) with hundred of nude male photos, many full frontals. It was a gay dream...

    1. Thanks for the title of the book! Do you happen to know where there might be a digital copy? Google Images was no help.

  4. I assume the stunning model was an athlete? Slightly odd to apply this form of anonymising. Especially from a part of Europe with liberal views regarding nudity. Perhaps as it was for medical use, rather than art?

    1. I was also surprised that the Czechs would do that silly eye bar.

    2. Yes, rather odd. I, of course would love to appear in such a publication!

    3. You'd look good there . . . or just about anywhere else.
