I bought the Brian Buzzini issue of Playgirl ...

Would that be the June 1985 issue (his first appearance in Playgirl), or the January 1986 issue when he was Playgirl's Man of the year? (Then in his early 20s, Brian is now 55.)

I believe this is from the Man of the Year issue ...

... then panicked when my roommate came home from Christmas vacation and tossed it out the car window.

Why did he do that? And would you like another copy? This one can be yours! ...

Keanu Reeves is 53 now (how did that happen?), but it seems like only yesterday we first noticed him. Here he is (top photo) at age 23 (1987) ...

Lew Christensen (1909-1984), viewed by many as the first great homegrown American male dancer, was also a choreographer, director and teacher. Here he is at age 28 (1937) in the role of Apollo. The photograph is by George Platt Lynes.

George Mallory (1886-1924), possibly the first mountaineer to make it to the summit of Mt. Everest, died during the 1924 British Mount Everest expedition. His body was found in 1999. He is pictured here at age 26 (1912) in a photograph by Duncan Grant.

Duncan Grant (1885-1978) was a British painter; a designer of textiles, pottery, theatre sets and costumes; and a member of the Bloomsbury Group. He is shown here at age 27 in 1912, the same year he took the photograph of George Mallory shown above.

Russ Tamblyn (born in 1934, turns 83 this December) is shown here at age 24 (1958) in the role of Tom Thumb, one year after his performance in the film version of Peyton Place earned him an Academy Award nomination, and three years before he played Riff, leader of the Jets, in West Side Story.

I was a big fan of the pre Star Wars Mark Hamill. From the short lived sitcom "The Texas Wheelers"

I remember him from a Kodak commercial. A two part episode of "Owen Marshall Counselor-at-Law", and an episode of "The Magician" starring Bill Bixby. He was the first David on "Eight Is Enough", only the first episode.

Peter Hinwood (born in 1946, now 71), a former actor and model best remembered as "Rocky" in The Rocky Horror Picture Show (1975), is an antiques dealer in London. In 1994 he found the gold hot pants he wore as "Rocky" and sold them through an auction house for nearly $1,000; they are now part of the Hard Rock memorabilia collection.
