Alonzo Hanagan, aka Lon of New York, may have used columns as props in his work before he moved into Mae West's Manhattan apartment. That is said to have increased after the move because Ms. West had done the place up in a riot of Rococo columns, cherubs, and other stuff. So today's set will feature Lon's columns, starting with George Paine in a shot where one can barely be seen.

Un Hercule !
ReplyDeletePaine avait un physique magnifique.
No wonder he caught Lon’s eye :)
Beautiful backside. :)
ReplyDeleteGeorge Paine won 1st prize as Most Muscular at the Mr America contests in 1953 and in 1954. The officials of the AAU could not bring themselves to allow a man to win the Mr America title because of the color of his skin….:(
The steam radiator is a nice touch (eye-roll)
ReplyDeleteWith an ass like that, I had to look extra hard to find the column!!!
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean.
