Press Releases for Male Models Vintage Beefcake:

November 2, 2011: I interview popular physique model Rick Alexander aka Rich Sternberger in this post on my blog Mike The Content Producer.

Rick stumbled upon the blog Male Models Vintage Beefcake while searching for images of one of his favorite beefcake models. He was delighted to also find photographs of himself taken by Champion Studio.

I was thrilled when he introduced himself.

We soon sat down for this online conversation.

April 16, 2011: Since I started this blog, several readers have suggested I write a book on vintage beefcake.

I am happy to announce I have partnered with Zach Augustine to do just that.

Our book is aptly titled One Man's Collection, since Zach acquired a massive collection of photographs belonging to a man who passed away in New York City in the early 1990's. Zach found the collection stashed in the back of a closet, left behind as garbage.

We donated the photograph you see in this post to the charity art auction, Skeletor Saves, held in New York City on April 7, 2011. The photograph is of an unknown model and was likely taken by Russ Warner in the 1950's.

Since we submitted it to the auction, I've been delighted to see the photograph popping up in blogs, forums and groups dedicated to vintage beefcake. It and the other photographs in the collection have been hidden out of sight long enough - It is a pleasure to work with Zach on this treasure trove of photographs, and I look forward to bringing all of the man's collection out of the closet and onto coffee tables everywhere - where it belongs!

January 19, 2011: The guardian.uk.co links to the blog with the word "beefcake" in its article on Tom of Finland's artwork being displayed in his hometown in Finland.

January 13, 2011: Bradford Shellhammer features the blog in his post on the Sundance Channel's website.
