Lawrence Langenecker


This is Lawrence Langenecker, and although he looks quite impressive here,
 I was unable to find any biographical information on him.

  1. The oil job does not really detract from this shot. Good-looking young male.

  2. Bel homme Langenecker, très lumineux !
    Well composed and lit image by the talented Urban. Full nude seemed to be less audacieux and daring at this time than after Ww2.

  3. I have a photo that has a bit of biographical info. It says he was from Maplewood New Jersey, was 5'2" and weighed 135 lbs. He had been training for only 7 months when the photo as published was taken (by Al Urban). I'll send you all my photos of him, just for completeness 😀
