Mr. Michigan of 1943 was Jerry Schemansky, and I believe he posed for this Doug Juleff photo some time later. He still looked great and shows off some nice chest hair. Handsome guy!!! Jerry was the brother of Olympic medalist weightlifter Norbert "Norb" Schemansky, whose photos I have posted in the past. Below is a 1947 shot of them at Yaco's Gym in Detroit. Jerry is the barbell.
Sorry, I can't resist this one...drool, swoon, lust. Big Dude
ReplyDeleteI totally agree. My favorite of the day.
DeleteWow, I'm speechless! Lol. That feeling of having to catch you're breath when viewing something impressive!
ReplyDeleteThis one was not only my favorite of the day, but also the find of the day. My jaw dropped when I came across this on a resale website. I had never seen it until three weeks ago.
DeleteIt is quite the find! The look on my face when I saw it said as much! Lol.
