Zane and Nubret  (and others of that era) had a harmony of body parts. Muscles of one area seemed to flow and match other parts of their body, in that harmony. Each BB'er had individual characteristics that set them apart from another.

Not a question of Zane vs Nubret, but which type appeals most to you.

Present Pro's resemble cartoon characters, which I think the magazines, book and video producers are forcing on the general BB'ing public. When your a teenager, you might believe it's cool to look like them. As one matures, being honest with yourself, the current Pro's do look a bit ridiculous.  Their health conditions are borderline ER room stat. Only my view but; Judging all this from many personal viewing of them, in the gym and out.
I agree 100%. As you get older you are more realistic and Health and well being is more important.

Frank Zane was a great champion. Frank zane was a great poser too and displayed his outstanding Olympian Physique to itīs fullest. I have wrote before i liked serge nubret too and was also an outstanding bodybuilder. no...for me Zane was unique ..

Zane was the better package - more complete and a better poser.

Nubret was incredible, but in fewer poses.

I agree that Zane was just... unique.

For aesthetics I'd also put Birdsong over Zane and Bannout.

I can accept that Nubret could be considered more aesthetic than Zane and Bannout, but Birdsong? Wow, sorry, but I couldn't disagree more.
