This item is a rare and vintage ACME /HEALTH KNOWLEDGE, INC publication titled THE VIKINGS Vol.2 No.2 - Summer 1965 featuring “18+” physique photography of muscular young guys in posing straps from all the greatest Scandinavian countries. It also contains similar artwork and figure drawings from the period as well. This magazine was produced in 1965. See photos for condition.

“This is the second issue of The VIKINGS and we hope that it will get the same fine welcome as the first one (see Page 60).

This time we have concentrated on presenting more art photos--owing to the great demand for this kind of physique photography. And in order to give the photos the best reproduction possible, we have printed them on specially-coated paper. Extra color pages have been added to give you even more value for your money.
With this book we want to make a special dedication to three top models - TORD ERICKS, JOHNNY CAPO and NIELS ANTON. Not only because they are photogenic and always do a fine job in front of the camera, but because they personify the healthy, modern youth of today.

We hope you will be pleased with our effort in giving you a book which presents the models in an artistic and personalized way. We also want to tell you that there are plans for a new issue of The VIKINGS to be released in early autumn with these and other models in new summertime photos.”
