Colt Men via jstrand

Earlier this year I received an amazing digital collection from viewer jstrand, and I previously 
posted some Wyngate and Bevins magazines from it.  There is a lot more on that thumb 
drive thatn just W&B, however, so today we will look at some material from Colt, 
starting with a model known as Rex.
Thanks a million to jstrand!

  2. I was a huge fan of the Men of Colt in it's heyday. Colt gave us well-built but "natural men" in a variety of poses, many of then more relaxed like this one. Often they were smiling. Then we moved on it seems...

    1. I agree, VV! Colt men were a refreshing alternative to all the twinks that flooded the market after liberalization in the late 60s.

  4. Rex, bel homme désiré
    Jim French, maestro de la forme masculine
    Early Colt image, either taken in New York or when Jim French would visit California, no doubt for the fine men. :)

    1. It didn't take Mr. French too long to realize he needed to move to California.

  6. Jim French set the masculine standard for physique photography after the golden age of Lon, Juleff and Bellas.
    Sexy Rexy being a case in point during that transition era 1967-1972….:)
