1955

I'm including this one as a reminder that Arax had a very successful business making, selling, 

and publishing photos of bodybuilders in trunks and at competitions.  We do not know the event 

this was made at, but the 1955 photo is from the collection of Lucien Bacquemane.  Is it just me, 

or are the black guy and the fellow at far right making eye contact?  It wouldn't be 

the first (or last) time two contestants fell in love at a male beauty contest.
