Airborne

As appealing as the photo is, that doesn't look comfortable.

 

AMG 1972

Although there is a Frankenstein feel to this, Bob Mizer seems

 to have intended this to be a regular medical themed item.

Phill Scott is the "patient" and Dell Woods is the doctor.

 

Masked Nudist

Part one concludes with a masked nudist.

 

Halloween 2026, Part 2 - Gays in the 70s

The second half our our Halloween special focuses on gays in the 1970s,

and where better to start than two guys in the Castro of San Francisco.

 

New York

This is some bar in New York.  Am I the only one flashing of RuPaul?

 

San Fran II

More from the Castro.

 

New York II

I wonder if these two New Yorkers were a couple?

 

Polk Street

Our closing photo was taken on Polk Street in San Francisco on Halloween Night 1977.

 

Back to the Beach

Back to the beach today, starting with a fellow and his towel in the dune grass.

 

1954?

My source said this one was from 1954, and if that's true,

I think it was professionally done.

 

Dad

This guy had to be somebody's dad.

 

Charming

I found this charming photo in a late 1960s magazine piece extolling the advantages of being a homosexual.  In fact, the article seemed obsessed with Oedipal urges among hetero men.

Needless to say, it was one of those porn booklets with an article or two thrown in.

 

Joggers

Here we see some early day beach joggers.

 

Hmmmm . . .

Hmmmm . . . this is somebody I'd like to know.

 

In the Dunes I

All kinds of fun things can happen in the dunes behind the beach,

and this fellow might be waiting for some.

 

Spoilt for Choices

Nice buns here.

 

Group

The man at the center of this group is in a really good spot and seems to know it.

 

Discobolus?

The pose is a bit awkward, but I think he was going for a discobolus using a rock.

 

In the Dunes II

Here's a second guy in the dunes with a different point of view.

 

Color Snap

And finally, our only color item has a man with a bulge.
