Costume Drama

From the left: Steve Wengryn, Don Fuller and, in the off chance you don't recognize that cute butt, Joe Leitel.  



Hmmm

I just recently learned this model's name, but I've already forgotten it.  

It's been a whole two weeks since I learned his name.  Brian got it.  This is Joe Stone.  



Arnie Payne




Ernie Banks

Another model who did a boatload of work at AMG in the 1980s.  




Suck It In

John Adams at AMG.  There were two different John Adams at AMG.  One of them is also known as John Q. Adams, but over the years I've seen both of them referred to as John Q. Adams.  Maybe someone can shed some light on this.

Bob's Debut

The handsome Bob Jensen by AMG. 

I'm surprised this is my first posting of Mr. Jensen.  Whenever I see his photos I recall that he was 18 or 19 years old and was a little hesitant (shy) to pose wearing almost nothing at all.  But his mother had big plans for her boy and convinced him to go to AMG.  Actually, she did more than convince him, she took him there herself and introduced him to Mizer.  

Mizer found Mrs Jensen quite charming and he was impressed enough to put Jensen on the cover of Physique Pictorial Vol. XVI No. 1 (Dec, 1966).  

Updated.  See comments from Photoplay.  Turns out, Jensen posed for Mizer in 1950!  I'm going to follow up with more photos and some additional background information in the near future. 




Teaser Campaign

The often fully exposed Armando Gonzalez gives us a glimpse of his package in this photo. 



Early AMG

I think this is the same guy in both photos.  




Four Guys in Jeans

All four of these models were listed as Unidentified in the AMG brochure.  



Gene Meyer & Pepper Gomez




Two More

Two more photos of Rob Rounder by AMG.

Three Things

Three things we'll never see.  The Loch Ness monster, Bigfoot and Erik von Garrett with a smile on his face. 



Triple Treat

A trio of bodybuilders with Irvin Koszewski in the middle and Reg Lewis on the left pose for Bob Mizer.  The guy in the background wearing sunglasses is Steve Reeves.  

See comments.

Guido says this is Charles Stroeder.  



Unique Workout

Dennis Johnson and T.J. Swann at AMG.

Something I got on Tumblr before they shot themselves in the foot.  I'm pretty sure it's AMG.  



Guys & Cars

Nice abs. 



Armando Gozalez

One of AMG's most prolific models in the 1980s.
