Happy New Year!

I know I've been MIA for a few weeks and I won't bore you with excuses.  I just wanted to share this photo that grabbed my attention at an auction site.  The seller attributed it to AMG.  I can't say the model or the set look at all familiar.  Anyone?  

Guido says this is Joe Bolen.  Thanks!

  1. Glad to see you back, James! Hopefully someone will be along shortly to name this fine model.

  2. The very background looks like a projected photo of the lake at MacArthur Park in L.A., so probably is from AMG.

    1. Happy New Year and welcome back, a blog break is needed now and then. Sorry can’t name the model or the exact photographer, so many physique models went unnamed or had numerous aliases, some shared by others :\

  4. I wish I could name this guy. I surmise, James, that you found this on the same seller site that we've recently been 'harvesting' from? I have 5 more of him (from the same site). I've named him 'Fake jungle scene' to keep his photos together and to be an easy memory jog were I to finally get his name. Two of the photos show his face clearly, but my software has no ID for him.

    1. Oh, please send! I'd like to put a face to that butt. After my own, of course.

  5. Happy New year, James
    According to the background I have labeled this/these photo(s) as Joe Bolen - in the AMG 1000 model directory his picture is on page 7.

    1. I knew Guido or Cambria would give us a name! You're 100% correct Guido! Thank you so much!

  6. JOE BOLEN was AKA JERRY BOLEN when he posed for Bob Mizer at AMG in January 1953.
