1930


FKK photos from the 1930s tend to all be in the very early years of the decade.  The Nazis curtailed FKK organizations not because the Nazis hated nudity, but because they didn't want any large, popular organizations that were not in their complete control.  This statuesque guy is from 1930.

  3. If you look carefully, this guy isn't nude. He is wearing a posing pouch. I think this is by Leni Riefenstahl, who made the movie about the "Nazi Olympics" in 1936.

    1. I see the strap now, and it does look like Riefenstahl's work.

  4. Not Riefenstahl, she had Erwin Huber, Luz Long and several German athletes as her models in 1936, this photo is earlier and some FKK men did wear posing straps when exercising. The FKK even had a booklet to show men how to make their own posing straps….:)

    1. She also had American athlete Glenn Morris as a model in her photo book about Olympia and the Olympic Games. Supposedly they had an affair during the games….:)
