Vintage silver gelatin print
circa 1950s
5" x 7"
Ripped, tattoed, shirtless cowboy. The attribution I was given was Art Byman photographed by Bob Mizer for the Athletic Model Guild (AMG). I have not been able to verify this but I can confirm that this is a great photograph of a very hot guy. Enjoy!

42 Individually Mounted Miniature Male Nude Albumens by Louis Jean Baptiste Igout (a.k.a. Calavas)
Forty-two miniature male nude albumen prints, individually mounted (with great precision) on a cabinet card. Ca. 1870.
The card measures approximately 4-1/4 x 6-1/2 inches. Each of the forty-two individual prints measures approximately 1/2 x 3/4 inches. Condition is very-good to excellent: Back of mount has some glue residue.
The photographer, Louis Jean Baptiste Igout, also know as Calavas, was a French photographer who lived from 1837 to approximately 1881. While catalogues, montages and individual prints become available occasionally, this work is unique and hand-made.
The item's importance to the history of male physique photography cannot be overestimated.
