Even in the skinny photos you can tell there's a lot of muscle tissue on those thin bodies. Pearl was very athletic before bodybuilding in several sports.

On March 8, 2014, Larry Scott died of complications from Alzheimer's disease at his home in Salt Lake City, at the age of 75. Wonder where the other fellow in the photo is today. Man, that photo was taken a long time ago, probably by Bob Mizer for his Athletic Model Guild publication.

The guy in the photo with Scott is Carter Lovisone, he'd later get semi-famous for being a dancer and DJ. He has some other photos that are NSFW here, but hilarious in a 1950's beefcake way -

OMG! Imagine that and consider the time when these photos were taken. Nudity was much more frowned upon than it is today.

"Mizer’s hard work would pay off in 1945, the year he founded The Athletic Model Guild, a studio of his own design that, on the surface, promoted healthy living with its images of toned, muscular bodies but provided thinly-veiled vehicles of desire for the gay men who counted themselves among his clients and patrons. The Athletic Model Guild brought to life in black and white a variety of muscular beefcake models, budding celebrities and musclemen, all the embodiment of traditional masculinity, health and even possessing a hint of sensuality.

“Bob’s images weren’t explicit by any stretch of the imagination, but certainly, for the time, they were considered provocative,” Bell says. “The work he was doing was pioneering, groundbreaking, and even dangerous for the time. Bob lived in constant fear of being fined, being arrested, or worse.”

Pretty amazing - they looked like the "Masters Of The Universe" figurines of the 80ies.
