Yea, Jim Palmer's underwear ad and I had a twice weekly meeting. He was the first I remember who combined athletic masculinity with a "come over here and suck on this" look. At least, that's how it played out in my fantasies.

Wow, this picture stirs up some fantasies even now...

There's nothing quite like a Perla panty.

This is how I imagine Batman and Robin in their underwear!

Good point!

Thanks for the historical note and photos. They cause me to give thanks for the sexy tight-fitting underwear of today....and for the muscled young men I get to model it for me.

I don't know where to begin with this one.

 

Was it really an *accident* to have the younger not-yet-an-otter in his Brian Wilson hair cut look intimidated by the big bear? Actually his eyes are looking away at something in the background. Pretty bad cut-out and paste work here. Man! The sixties and seventies really were a golden age before all of that unnecessary manscaping that took over. Note how he flaunts his arm pit, which is less hairy than his chest.

 

By the way, this enormously popular ad in 1982 is the one that officially kicked off the Era of Manscaping. Almost overnight, men began using their razors for other areas besides their faces. The golden age of Sean Connery and Tom Selleck was officially over.

 

 

A couple others that amuse me.

 

Note how the man can be a trifle more revealing provided there's a WOMAN next to him. Can't get too homoerotic in the seventies, y'know. He has to stay focused on HER even though she is dressed like some nun/nurse in alternative white. This is quite an unusual ad for unusual underthings.

 

 

Oh... this is so wrong on so many levels...

 

Don't get me started on the blatant racism involving the yard-stick brief.

 

 

Some ads are so easy to "date". There is little question that this one was published right around the time LBJ was leaving office and Nixon was taking over. You can sense the overall disgust the younger generation was having with the "silent majority".

Thanks! These are fun. There's even one advertising the product of a company near where I grew up.

[geoffk]

the #32 fruit of the loom guy got me off so many times.

[+ glennnn]

Looking at some of the ads from the 40's and 50's makes me wonder where the models were hiding their packages. There is apparently nothing there- no roundness, no lumps, no nothin'. Did a modeling call go out for men with no cock or balls? Most likely retouched, I suppose. Or perhaps the models are all females in drag.? Or perhaps those models are females in drag?

How could I forget my man? Sorry about the last pic. I guess he forgot to put it on.

I think it was his calling to be an underwear model. I wish he did private shows.

Well done!!

Yum! He’d make a great ‘personal shopper’ for underwear.
