Rich in Maryland wrote to ask if I've ever seen a full nude photo of Seymour Koenig.  Sorry Rich, but no, I haven't.  My photos of this bodybuilder are all from AMG in the early 1960s, several years before Mizer went full nude. 

I read somewhere Seymour also posed for Lon of NY, so there's a possibility there might be a full nude of him from Lon.  Anyone know for sure?

OK!  One familiar (and handsome) face for today.  The body ain't bad, either.  😀

Seymour Koenig by AMG, circa 1960.  

Seymour Koenig

Seymour Koenig was a popular bodybuilder back in the 1950s and 1960s.  He posed for many photographers including Lon of NY, Bruce of LA and Bob Mizer.  After his bodybuilding career ended Seymour joined the pro wrestling circuit and was a fan favorite in many of his matches.  

Top photo: Bruce of LA took this photo of a young Seymour Koenig holding one his many trophies.  Bottom photo: Bob Mizer took this wonderful photo showing many of Seymour's assets.  I'm not sure how old the Bruce of LA photo is, but the AMG photo was taken around 1960.  Seymour would have been around 27 years old at the time.
