Mandate 1980


For today we will look at ten photos from several 1980 issues of Mandate magazine.  We start with a picture by Len Tavares from April in which a model is holding a trophy surrounded by covers.
Mr. Tavares was the in-house photographer for Mandate for quite some time.

    1. More than a few of Mr. Tavares' models were not named in the magazine.

  3. This is Robert Rodriguez who was featured in the December 1979 issue. He was the Mandate man of the month. I have the cover photo, this photo and nothing else!
