They had some serious style back in the day.  Especially Vince Gironda.

There really was a time when bodybuilders were good examples. Weak how pathetic the game has become  :-\

That Pearl shot is out of this world.  That's a great example of what physique photography should be about.  Talk about triceps!

Gironda had a very good physique even into his 40's.  IMO he did it legit, as in natural.

There is if you have a 60-inch chest and legit 20's hanging out the shirt sleeves.

 There is always some kind of stupid looking style going on that people laugh at 20 years later. Right now is no different.
