Come on guys, look at the width of his shoulders vs his miniscule waist. He is ripped. Hasn't got an ounce of fat on him. That was in the 1940's for Christ sake. Which one of you guys currently has a build like that?
I think what we're trying to say is more than anything the picture is what we dislike.
the pose isnt very masculine. that 'type' pose in the history of western art is normally for women.
I don't understand whats so good about him.... V-taper wow! Impressive but not all hes hyped up to be.
No, I'm pretty sure that would've been considered fruity in the late 40's.
Ever hear of a bad picture?18 inch arms 18 inch neck 50 inch chest 28 inch waist and 18 inch calves was pretty sick in frekin 1950
