A Treasure Trove

I cleaned out one of my closets the other day and found a box filled with what we call "junk".  Going through the box I found eleven data CDs (remember them?) and all of them were marked "Review".  

Well...I reviewed them.  On the CDs are hundreds of photos I collected on the net over the years.  My plan at the time I made these CDs was to organize the photos and then label them for my permanent collection.  Somehow that plan got away from me.  :)

The photos fall into several categories.  They include AMG models, gay porn stars, Playgirl models, vintage amateur shots and a healthy supply of what I call "Vintage Unknowns But Not Unappreciated".

So now I have a new plan.  It's the same as the old plan with an added step.  I'm going to catalogue them, then post many of them to this blog.   Along the way I will seek assistance in identifying some of the models.  I plan to keep with the mission of this blog -- posting Men From Back Then -- and I will continue to avoid posting any explicit photos.  

So below are a few photos from the CDs.  This should give you a good idea of what's coming in the future.  


Fred Halsted by unknown.  



One of my "unknowns" that I'm sure will strike a few chords out there. 


Jerry Carchiolo by AMG. 




Gay porn legend J.W. King during the short-lived period when he sported a beard. 


Lennie Maddux (left) and Joe D'Vinci (sigh) in a promo photo for the AMG film Be A Good Scout, released in 1971.  Joe had a great body and a really nice looking penis.  Just saying. 


Mike Ramsey by unknown.  He did exactly four gay videos and I have all four of them.  This guy was husband material. 


I'm pretty sure this guy worked for Nova.  Update: I think that's Nova model Chris Dean. 


I forget his name, but I keep thinking he worked on a Joe Gage film. 


Smoke break.  


Do let me know what you think of my plans and tell me if this theme is something you would want to see.

  2. Fred Halsted revved my motor, but I would cheerfully spend sack time with any of them.

  3. Great vintage photos, looking forwards to future posts, sounds like there's going to be quite a few to see. Understand you're not posting explicit ones, however......maybe you can develop an easy guide to put alongside their name or description. Eg. xx = been photographed btm, or mm = been photographed top. This would be great, especially for the earlier photos.

  4. Great idea! You know we all would love to see obscure photos, and try to help with identification of the models. I'm looking forward to it!

  7. The unknown guy is from a former Tumblr called The Invisible Man. It was a photographer who just asked guys passing by to pose for him. Some he told a little story about them. Though he never gave names. I have sever al of his pics.

  8. Wonderful group of hot photos. Like them all. The one you think is Chris Dean is Chris Dean. Remember it from a film and even the robe he is wearing but can't remember the title. Think it's a great idea for a project. Would love to see it. I'd had plans to organize all the photos I burned to those CDs also. So glad you are getting to yours.

  9. Smoke break guy is so much like the guys we knew who liked metal and hard rock and motorcycles and always had a strong sexual energy.
