There is probably some image trickery involving perspective, lighting, etc.... in the old photos.

Bob Hoffman was probably the most getbiggerish -

He would engage in fisticuffs with his rivals and once offered to box Joe Weider. He would also in later years, respectfully regale audiences with tales of his sexual prowess during weightlifting demonstrations.

Jealousy. Goodrum probably has a hand in it. No pun intended.

joe used to like to put his head on a lot of the stars of the day. robby robinson thought he was posing for a bust of himself for weider's office . he was dissappointed at the unveiling to find joe's melon on top of his torso.

Hierarchy always trying to re-write history...If enough time passes, people will forget that it was Robbie's body and think it was actually Joe Weider.

Best natural physique by a publisher is Dan Lurie.
Weider photos are all touchups except for the obvious real ones.
Joe just didn't have much of a physique. His thing was business.
So be it.
