BRIEF HISTORY OF PHYSIQUE CULTURE MAGAZINES
Publisher Joe Weider of world wide bodybuilding magazines, Your Physique, Muscle Power, Muscle Builder, Muscle, Flex, American Beauty etc. and Mr Universe, Mr Olympia and others contest fame.
Body Beautiful and Adonis magazines were put together by Lon Hanagan for Joe Weider of bodybuilding fame in the 1950's. Joe Weider realized that he had a large gay following for his bodybuilding magazines (Your Physique). His magazine also has a very talented gay staff of Lon Hanagan and George Quaintance who created the first covers for Bob Mizer's Physique Pictorial magazine. Lon created Body Beautiful as well as Adonis magazines which were first published in England and later in America.
Joe Weider was a Canadian bodybuilder and entrepreneur who co-founded the International Federation of Bodybuilders (IFBB) with his brother Ben Weider. He was also the creator of the Mr. Olympia, the Ms. Olympia and the Masters Olympia bodybuilding contests.
These magazines had men in posing straps in softer Grecian poses rather than the hard muscle flexing that were offered in Weider's muscle magazines.
In December 1945, Gay pornography pioneer Bob Mizer founded Athletic Model Guild, or AMG. Mizer's AMG produced Physique Pictorial, the first all-nude and all-male magazine, and the film Beefcake documents his work and the growth of the beefcake magazine industry. H. Lynn Womack published magazines such as Manorama, MANual, Fizeek, and Trim and was involved in the U.S. Supreme Court case MANual Enterprises v. Day (1962). From 1964 to 1967, Clark Polak published DRUM magazine.
In the 1960's, the pretense of being about exercise and fitness was dropped as controls on pornography were reduced. By the end of the decade gay pornography became legal, and the market for beefcake magazines collapsed.
Due to recent delivery issues with the USPS I prefer to ship all magazines, digests and paperback books via Priority Mail. Up to $100 of insurance is included in this price. If you require additional insurance please let me know before I invoice you. I'm selling my collection of vintage 1950-1980s gay pulp paperback novels, pictorial and hardcore magazines, physique photography, magazines, artwork and other LGBTQ ephemera.
