George Quaintance Day, Part 1 - Nude Photos

George Quaintance was best known for his art work which appeared in Physique Pictorial and on the covers of "legitimate" bodybuilding magazines in the late 1940's and 1950's.  We will see some of that art work in the second half of today's double feature, but let's start with some of Quaintance's photographs.  This is Scotty Bowers, a bisexual Hollywood sexual procurer known only to his clients and a few insiders in the gay community at the time this photo was made.

Scotty Bowers, "Pimp to the Stars," dies at age 96

News Item:

Scotty Bowers has passed away at age 96.  I have mentioned him from time to time in my blogs due to his claims, some confirmed and some denied, to have had sex with a number of male and female movie stars from the end of World War II into the 1960's and 70's.  In fact, Bowers was quoted that it was only the arrival of AIDS in the 80's that got him out of the sex circuit.  Procurement was also a Bowers specialty, and he had a long list of clients and their sometimes peculiar needs.  Here is an obituary from the Washington Post:

This is perhaps what all the excitement was about in reference to Scotty Bowers in the 1940's and 50's.  There are about a dozen nude and semi-nude photos of Scotty in circulation from that era, but the only one I can find an atrribution for is one by George Quaintance in which Bowers has on slacks.  The style of this one does closely match Quaintance's style, though.
