It's a Vic Gariglio Photopalooza (1 of 3)

Thanks to Brian I now have a boatload of new photos of Victor Gariglio.  

Vic was 24 years old, stood 6 feet tall and weighed 165lbs when he posed for Bob Mizer in 1969.  He did at least three sessions at AMG, including studio, rooftop and an "on the road" series.  I believe all of the sessions were filmed in 1969, just as AMG went to full nude.  

It appears Vic was a popular model with Bob's customers.  He was originally promoted in the AMG Bulletin in July, 1969 and appeared in Physique Pictorial in 1970, 1973 and 1974.  Back then, Bob gave us Subjective Characters to tell us a little bit about the model.  In Vic's case, he was described as a horny, well-hung hustler, but Bob was not sure if Vic liked girls.  Vic did, however, get the coveted "star" of approval. 

P.S. I know the text in the top photo states Vic was 22 years old, but other more reliable sources say he was 24.

  1. VIC GARIGLIO posed a couple of times for AMG in 1969 and was one of the first models to toss the Posing Pouch. VIC was one of AMG's First "Natural Models".!!
    Bob Mizer told us that VIC was from Detroit and was approximately 25 years old at the time. VIC was a Marine and asked Mizer to keep that on the DL. Mizer talks about VIC living all over the world but never explained how a short order cook from Detroit could do that.!
    VICs last Name was spelled 4 different ways by Bob Mizer. To be sure it is him look for the small birthmark near his Manhood and the Tattoo on his upper arm.!!

  2. Were the photos and description 2 years old when the photographer thought it was legal to release them? That could account for the difference in ages.
