Sig Klein
This is Sig Klein, a bodybuilder who maintained championship level fitness into his 50s.
Famous strongman and gym owner. Klein took over the New York gym of the famed strongman Louis Attila and married his daughter. Klein designed and built special equipment for the gym. Among those who worked out at Klein’s gym at 717 Seventh Avenue - Frank Leight and Tony Sansone. Those globe barbells and dumbbells are worth a mint today. Such weights were filled with shot that could be added or removed to adjust their weight, others had adjustable plates inside or were solid….:)
This is great! Those sandals are the best. bns
