Wow, I was thinking this thread would get zero replies. Sadly, I'm at an ultra-slow computer and can't see all the pictures.

 

What is also surprising me is that no one seems to have mentioned any ballet dancers.

 

In that respect, it's also too bad the cutoff is 1920, since Nijinsky would have made it if he'd somehow passed away by age 29.

I could post many more as I'm a history *****. (pome?) Don't want to flood a forum that was created discussing handsome men of today, though. Ha!

And Schubert, for one, was actually probably guy, I believe. Drank himself into an early death (with syphillus (sp?) possibly thrown in for good measure.

 

Some hot guys in this thread - no wonder I like history. Yumm.....

Finally figured out how to embed Mr Cassidy. Now did he embed Mr

Harry Longbaugh, the Sundance Kid, apparently wasn't as good-looking as Robert Redford

Purplekow is definitely on the right track. Back then, the most photographed people, for the most part, were wealthy people, artists, and, of course, criminals. And personally, I like guys that are a little more rugged so the best looking man who died before 1920 can probably be found by looking through mug shots from the 19th century.

 

I'll nominate this guy:

 

http://ridiculouslyinteresting.files.wordpress.com/2011/09/alfred-lovegrove001.jpg?w=516

 

Alfred Lovegrove (b. 1852, England). Charged with attempted rape and sentenced to 2 years in gaol on 19 July 1886 (Oamaru). Photograph taken on 22 January 1887.

 

I can't verify when he died, but given when he was born, it's likely that he died before 1920.
