From a family estate of a gentleman’s collection of gay and male related photographs and ephemera. Most items are from the early to mid 20th century and includes loose photographs as well as some pictures that were cut by the owner from an antique photo album. Digital Reprint A formal seated portrait of a very attractive young european sailor in uniform. The lighting is a bit dramatic in this picture, casting a shadow across the actual left side of his face. The expression in his eyes is as if he really wanted to smile, but did not. He has medium-tone skin and dark eyes, dark wavy hair. I have a copy of this one framed on the wall in my office because he looks so wise to be such a young man.

Harvard Swim Team candid 4″ x 4″ snapshot early 1930s gay man’s collectionearly 1930s Brand new. Digitally edited and professionally re-printed on photo stock. From a family estate of a gentleman’s collection of gay and male related photographs and ephemera. Most items are from the early to mid 20th century and includes loose photographs as well as some pictures that were cut by the owner from an antique photo album. Digital Reprint A square 4″x4″ candid of four members of the Harvard swim team, taken some time in the early 1930s. All are shown in their 1-piece swim suits that were used by competitive swimmers at the time – Johnny Weissmuller used this type suit in the Olympics. All the men’s legs have been shaved, or they were naturally smooth. I see a slight bit of hair on the chest of the man on the far right, otherwise they look to have smooth chests as well. The tall man center-left (the blond) is wearing round wire-rim glasses.Note that because of the enlargement from my scanner, the image shown here is slightly more blurry that the print you will receive.
