No shit? This is honestly the first I've heard of that!

I suppose it should not come as too big of a surprise. Irving Johnson "became" Rheo H. Blair after a fortune-teller convinced him the letters had greater astrological significance and would bring him more money.


I am reminded of a scene from one of the greatest works in contemporary American cinema:

This is probably my favorite era of bodybuilding. I am a huge mark for Draper, Scott, Ortiz, etc.
Probably around 2007, JPM turned me onto some of Gironda's ideas from the 50's & 60's. I was hooked!

Funk,
Do you have any articles, interviews, general information, etc. about John Grimek?

Yes. I've also noticed that Funk II is coincidentally (or not) absent from the boards more than usual as of late.

grimek was pretty much screwed over by hoffman, much like dave draper was  by joe weider. as chronicled in john fair's  muscletown usa book.

Thanks, brother! This is the first I've seen, I think, all of these pictures.

One thing, though: does it look like Zink's abs are shopped in the photo below? Look at his waist on the left side (his right).
