This posing clip by DOUG WILLIAMS (shot by AMG's Bob Mizer) predates the Warren Frederick footage just posted by tinkmmv & bigjeff, but all three clips suggest how rarely, relatively speaking, black muscle figured in the covertly erotic "physique" mags of the mid-XXth century. (Blacks had a greater presence in mainstream Wieder/Hoffman BB publications, where the pix weren't aimed at gay viewers--at least not officially--and reportage reflected the growing ranks of successful black competitors.) In the AMG clip, Williams is notable, quite apart from his splendid looks, for a sly inclusion of irony and boldly parodistic gesture in an otherwise standard posing routine. He was a very special sort of sex object (in photos or in person) and he knew it! So did Bob, whose high regard for what he persisted in calling "fine Negroe [sic] athletes"(this, in 1974!) led him to work with far more of them than any other photographer of the day. They included some of his favorite models: Robert Coney, Walter Leon Gibson, Jeffrey Willis, Gerald Oglesby, Joe Austin, Bobby Gordon, & Chris Dickerson (whom he delighted in referring to by his true first name--Henri.)

11 months agoVery impressive vintage clip. I wonder was this aimed at a 'gay' audience or just those who like to enjoy the natural look?

5 years agoGreat vintage clip. Back then most guys were posing in minimal pouches and this guy is fully nude. And he even shows his butthole. Awesome!

11 years agoI like when he switches from the standard classic bodybuilder poses to getting down and showing his asshole. This guy knows how to show it off!

12 years ago@shelgr3 negro describes the color of our skin. the more PC term is African American because it reflects ethnicity rather than skin color.

12 years agoThere's an ongoing argument about whether that perfectly proper word could now be thought "offensive,' For some, and in certain contexts, it apparently is. By 1974 it already sounded distinctly 'quaint,' and its use often implied the speaker wanted to turn the clock back to the pre-civil-rights era. But while Bob was merely being old-fashioned, his use of 'Negroe' was a flat-out misspelling of 'Negro.' That's all I meant.

12 years agoThere's absolutely nothing wrong with the word "Negro" (plural = "Negroes"), either in 1974 or now.

12 years agoConfidential to Mjolesko: Well, I guess things HAVE changed, then, and quite a lot, in the 60 years since that bit of gay erotica (the Colbert photo) was shot. Now let's see: homely (UNcheck), ill-groomed (uncheck), big dick (uncheck) ANY dick (uncheck). Maybe this is another reason why that era is thought of as the Golden Age.

12 years agoNo doubt about it, mjolesko. But just look at who's turning out that junk--third rate video outfits owned and/or operated by men of color! In the best physique-oriented sites (MuscleHunks et al) superior black men are reasonably well represented--just as idealized as whites, and on their own terms, not made to conform to WASP conventions.
