Can you scan in the complete article? It would be amazing to see it!

Not sure how good the quality of the text is when its been scanned.

crownshep · « **Reply #26 on:** January 05, 2006, 10:45:45 AM »

Sorry about the quality of the text,but the binding of the magazine is right on the edge of the scanner,and so lets a little bit of light in.Hope its still readable.

Damn crownshep, thanks a lot brother. You must have a ton of old magazines. Do you buy current ones too?

Crownshep is a major player on several boards . . . Love the guys efforts.

Crownshep, you're the man!!

Ah, yes and it appears the IFBB learned it's lesson from that fiasco and ran things honestly from then on...

At the moment i`ve got about 1,000,i sold about 500 a couple of years ago on ebay.I haven`t bought any since 1999,the only one`s i buy now are the old Muscle Builder and Power off ebay from the early 70s.Thanks for the kind words guys,i like it when someone mentions an old pic or article from the 70s,it gives me a memory test as to which magazine its in,and when i find it,its fun to read the same articles i first read as a 16 year old kid.When most men pass 40,they buy a porsche to make them feel young,i read old mags.

Do any of you happen to know any stats on Danny? Height, weight, measurements, I was in awe of the guy (still am actually) as I am of the height challenged catagory also. The guy is so thick and dense way ahead of his time, great lines and proportional.

crownshep · « **Reply #37 on:** January 15, 2006, 05:15:34 AM »

Danny was about 5` 2" and around 175lbs,here`s a couple of leg stats.

Here's another one of Danny and Ed together . . . goofing around on the beach in Los Angeles when they lived and trained there together in the early 1980s. I told Ed that it's the ONLY photo he has where he's standing next to someone and looks really tall

Jr. Yates · « **Reply #41 on:** January 17, 2006, 12:05:40 PM »

is danny the guy in pumping Iron that jumps into arnolds arms and gets called a "sick guy"?

Sculpter · « **Reply #42 on:** January 17, 2006, 03:26:28 PM »

Nope, thats Eddie Guiliani i'm pretty positive. Danny's talking to Arnold in the Ed Corney posing area of the film.

onlyme · « **Reply #43 on:** January 17, 2006, 11:22:26 PM »

Yes it's Eddie.

crownshep · « **Reply #44 on:** January 18, 2006, 06:45:30 AM »

Eddies the guy who jumps into his arms.Danny is sat with Arnie when they watch Corney pose,and Franco doing his rear lat spread.

knny187 · « **Reply #45 on:** January 18, 2006, 01:15:09 PM »

Arnie say's to Eddie....."You sick guy"

Jay Em · « **Reply #46 on:** January 18, 2006, 05:24:04 PM »

Yes, I agree, Crownshep is the man. I also totally agree with him on magazines
and enjoying the oldies. It's like I'm locked in that timeframe because the times
were soooo much simplier, purer, less complicated, showy, extreme, etc., etc.

And yes, Danny, The Dragon Slayer (of much bigger prey...), was screwed over,
I believe, in numerous contests. He's the perfect--and I emphasize, perfect--
example of what a short man can overcome and achieve, to their best advantage.

He used his shorter limbs to build an incredible physique, of rare equal.

One man's opinion.

Jr. Yates · « **Reply #47 on:** January 18, 2006, 10:50:04 PM »

oh yes thats right its eddie thanks guys!
