Vintage men

Ralph Hall (British Vintage Model) - Lover of Monty Glover, photographer. Ralph was a lad from London’s East End, and judging from his letters to Monty a lovely lad. Here he is in a punt in the 1930-40′s. Lovely bulge - Monty knew how to pick out his best assets.

University of Pennsylvania Cricket Team in 1887 - beautiful young men from 134 years ago. Cricket was popular in the USA in the late 19th century. I love the expressions in this picture.

I am going to get carpal tunnel syndrome from constantly clicking the "Like" button, so just take it for granted that I "Like" everything in this thread, unless I indicate otherwise.

These two photographs show Tommy O’Rourke (1) , and Johnny “The Bull” Gibson (2). Both were Sex Workers (Renters, or Male Prostitutes) at Columbia Hall (a.k.a. Paresis Hall) a brothel for male clients in New York during the 1880′s. It was closed down, due to its increasing popularity with the men of the city. I suppose these cards could be advertisements for what was for sale, or as a keepsake after the event.

Assorted pics.

Ray York (1933-2020), age 20 in this picture, is fresh out of the shower after winning the 1954 Kentucky Derby. Fellow jockey Eddie Arcaro (1916-1997), who won the Derby five times previously and came in 4th in the '54 race, helps to dry Ray's hair.

From the National Archives, these photographs from April 1918 document a World War I aviation recruit being examined at the Episcopal Hospital in Washington, D.C. The photographer is unknown, but the symbol at lower left of the next image indicates that he was part of the Army Signal Corps.
