Grecian Guild Pictorial Convention Issue January 1960 Vintage Male Physique Mag

$195 · Offered by eBay

Original January 1960 Convention Issue of Grecian Guild Pictorial, a scarce vintage American male physique publication from the golden age of physique photography. A striking and highly collectible example of the specialist physique magazines produced during the late 1950s and early 1960s, featuring classic male physique photography throughout. These publications have become increasingly sought after not only by collectors of bodybuilding and physical-culture material, but also for their importance within the history of mid-century gay male visual culture. Condition: Good vintage condition for its age. Some expected age-related wear, handling and toning consistent with a magazine now over 65 years old. Please study the photographs carefully as they form part of the condition description. The magazine is stored in a specialist acid-free protective cover and will be sent carefully packed in a stiff/rigid shipping mailer. Further scans of this particular magazine can be provided on request — please message me if you would like to see them. I have a large collection of vintage male physique and gay-interest magazines for sale, including scarce material from the 1950s onwards and material which may not be suitable for listing on eBay. Please message me for further information or if you are looking for particular titles, dates or issues.
