Wyngate & Bevins

Sometime around 1966, a US court ruled that nudist magazines showing full male frontals 

were not obscene unless sexually explicit.  Typical for us Americans, someone was ready 

to make a buck.  One such was an outfit called Wyngate & Bevins which began publishing 

"nudist" magazines that were really nothing more than gay beefcake with lots of frontal nudity.  

Until full liberalization two or three years later, they had a near monopoly 

on legal male frontal nudity.  So today is Wyngate & Bevins day.

Solo

W&B sprinkled some solo shots in their publications, as in this archery shot.

 

Frolic

Carefree scenes of nude males frolicking together in the country

were standard fare in Wyngate and Bevins magazine.

 

Trio

Here we see a trio in an area that could have been used to shoot cowboy movies.

 

Bob Mizer

Not only was there overlap between the AMG model pool and W&B's stable, but Bob Mizer is widely believed to have done a considerable amount of the new outfit's photography.  This solo shot

of the handsome Ted Hudson is said to have been an example.

 

Color

By the standards of the day, Wyngate & Bevins lavishly used color,

as in ths shot of four slabs of prime beef.

 

Trio II

This trio is Bert Callinder, Max Wolf, and Ram Rod.

Sports

Ending the set with a photo from what I think was a sports themed photo shoot.

 

Wyngate & Bevins

I think this is from a Wyngate & Bevins publication,

the photography for which may have been by AMG.

 

Trios

Today we do everything by threes, and our first trio looks like

they were cropped from a bigger Wyngate & Bevins photo.
