Although this photo of Warren Frederick has the same leopard-skin background seen in the movie BigJeff posted, it doesn't look like a film outtake, but a b&w still taken while the movie was being made. When I found it, it had been attributed to Films Tropical, a Florida company that sold both films and slides. But their most active period (the mid-60s) & the models they favored--teenagers with fitness-caliber muscles (if that)--didn't really jibe with the time-frame or competition-style posing suggested by the Frederick movie. Figuring the FT attribution was wrong after all, I did some further digging, and I think I've now traced the footage to its source.
