Chuck Collras sure seems to have a very solid physique in all those pictures, some through different eras.
    they say chuck was a quirky guy , he'd pose anywhere, i heard he just stood on a table and started posing during a wedding reception.

Never thought much of Kenny's physique although he was quiet proportionate and his calves were world class.

maybe it was just his coloring that you didn't care for. red hair and freckles makes tanning very difficult.

Amazing physiques. I remember looking for muscle mags when I was a kid in the 80s here in the Philippines. I would see these old Iron Man mags (Small format) with guys on the cover I didn't know about. Is there a book on these guys?

most of these older books are out of print and hard to come by except if you want to pay an exorbiant price on e-bay etc. but you may be in luck robert kennedy of musclemag international is putting out a special issue featuring many of the top bodybuilders  of the period 1940-1990. it should be out in the next several monthes watch for it.
