Here’s an example of a good photo (one I can’t recall seeing elsewhere) but it’s a poor “copy” of it, as it’s something I nabbed sometime ago from an eBay auction, where it’s not scanned, but rather a photograph of a centerfold from a Roy Dean calendar from 1978.
In the fuller image below, you can see how it’s not flattened enough to photograph its best – but at least I know to keep digging for a better version –

AMG, Old Reliable, Surge Studios, miscellaneous mid-80’s direct on video…. but not much Tico on BJland! hmmmmppppf!
oh wait – a bit more Tico
please play this music file – C’Ex – while reading this post
the above image I nabbed from an eBay auction – GAI PIED #313 – no info on the magazine, (late 1980’s?) but I can see Michel Guillot credited as the photographer. I think it’s Karl Forest … see the handful of images I have of him below to see if you agree. Then, if it is, is it worth the $12 with shipping to get a better quality version, if that is the only image of him in the magazine?
Of course, Le Beau Mec is one of my Top Ten all-time favorite porno films – and he’s in only one ( Hommes Entre Eux– AKA Men Between Themselves) or two (In Tense Heat – not clear if he is actually in it) other porno films, and a small role in a “legit” film – Johan (1976), which I have yet to see.
and for good measure, let’s throw in the Cade Cousins, but I can’t rememeber why
Beautiful, hairy, bearded, uncut Bob Blount (AKA Lloyd Kasper) meets blond hiker Karl on a mountain highway. I sold this
46-page magazine back in 2006. I did not keep the best scans, but have since managed to get quite a few online, mostly, yes, eBay auctions! The magazine was from ARENA PUBLICATIONS, published 1979, and contained only 2 pages of ads – the rest are photos!

oh gosh. Many of you know I don’t usually pay much attention to personal lives of our porn stars, or the WEHT (What Ever Happened To) questions… but, a reader was kind enough to let me know that Ledermeister – Paul Gerrior, passed away last week. Sad, he had just taken ill, and as you can see at the link, a GoFundMe had just been established to help (and I believe is still active). Beautiful man, and what little I’ve read about his post-porn life, beautiful soul as well.

“legit” offerings on MUBI
looks like some friends have posted a tribute video – Memories of Paul Gerrior – on youtube of his “legit” work. The last part is a clip from a film I’ve wanted to see, Strapped. Alas, they added a COLT photo at the end – but it’s not him! I hope they don’t mind I pointed it out on their tribute, so they can fix it.
Not a lot of pics of Mr. Bull Dozier, having only appeared in 2 films: Up Tight! (AKA Closeup, with Nick Rogers), and Satisfaction (AKA, Bull Dozier) a solo – (“pulsating warm water in a hot tub turns Bull on”); and these publications: Target Album #2 1981; Bullet’s Bull’s Eye, 1980 Target Calendar, Mandate November 1979, Honcho December 1979 and November 1998 (!); and I think he’s part of a Richard White Illustration Set (drawings of Target stars).
From what I can tell, Dan only modeled for Target Studios, appearing in two publications – Javelin #1 , and Ramrod #3 – as well as two photosets, one solo, and with with “Jerry”. All this is from 1975. In terms of filmwork – while I was gonna “tease” GEVI for listing Dan as “Dan Donovan (80s)” (the “80’s” designation seems to happen when these films are transfered to videotape, usually in the 80’s) but I have to give him credit for noting that the 2 films listed are really one film split into two when it came out on tape – Couplet with Glen Dime (contained on Bullet Vidopac 4), and Danny Boy (contained in Bullet Videopac 3) – and I imagine these well made have been 2 solos where 1 model is imagining the other? Further investigation needed!
Intern! Cue up the videotapes!
Dan Donovan on GEVI – Gay Erotic Video Index – I think the 4 listings are various video version of the one, same film.
alas, there are not as many Gordon Grant ass shots as you’d hope for… I’m open to seeing more, of course. The above 2 are from 1976, courtesy of Man’s Image – #2 is perhaps my all-time fave of Mr. Grant’s backside; below, of course, from COLT’s OLYMPUS #3 (1975) with Marty Palmer (who apparently did a solo photo set!) – but of course we are only getting a side view. Does Marty actually get his face in Gordon’s ass in House Boat? Has anyone on film? Somewhere on my blog I am sure the “plaid butt” Gordon picture must be, right?

I suppose I should pull out the biography of Al Parker to get some basic info on Steve; we all know he’s Al’s lover, and wasn’t in any films without Al. Finding pics of him where he’s not blowing someone is a challenge, so I imagine that was his favorite activity, right?? !!
note: GEVI has The Young Stimulators (1985), a Robert Prion film listed – I really doubt Taylor worked with Prion, so I don’t list it above – I can only imagine how common the name “Steve Taylor” would be. Of course below I have a link to other Steve Taylor posts, but here’s some highlights: my-balls-your-butt – just the look on Steve’s face! and of course, what-a-performance – from Performance, a clip of Nick Rodgers briefly fucking Steve’s face. Games – I’m gonna have to dig that one out to figure out if Steve is indeed only used as the publicist, or is that his cock in the first scene?
just want to pause a moment here. The below pic, as poorly cropped as it is, is the best I could find highlighting his lovely furry chest; browns, whites, gray hairs. mmmmmmm
Bonus points for identifying the co-star in this last photo! more Steve Taylor
i was rapidly zipping thru the porn machine (this P.C.) looking for a specific photo, and then
bam!
this.
let’s observe a few moments of silence
scroll back up if you need to; don’t worry about me
damn he’s hot. something about this particular photograph that really grabs me
sigh
I know there are some readers who don’t care much for the pornstars who model bad 70’s clothes posts…. but I can’t hold back on this one! I only wish I had nabbed that copy of the 1974 Leather N Things catalog when it looked affordable on eBay a few weeks back. (I still see a $500 asking price for one – ouch!) “Leather’n’Things, the leather clothing store at 4079, 18th Street, on the corner of Castro and 18th Street, in San Francisco.” Gosh, actually to have the photos themselves, without the catalog verbiage…..there’s one with a gun holster (the “man’s man holster” – with gun, of course) – but his ass in jeans, a glimpse of his hairy back…. Actually, while the zippered briefs below isn’t something I could wear, he pulls them off well. I didn’t see a bad outfit in the 6 or 7 pics I’ve seen from that catalog.
a bit more Ledermeister in leather; and of course my recent Paul Gerrior post from a couple weeks back.
Director: Arch Brown (1978)
Jack Wrangler is a “madman” who makes a time bomb inside a dildo, then plants it among one of several identical dildos in a dirty bookstore. He has sex with the store clerk, then the two of them get it on with 2 others. Several guys purchase one of these dildos, Jack Wrangler jerks off while watching the clock tick, Jack calls the New York Post to warn them for some reason, and…… With Eric Ryan, Tom Cord, Michael Munsey, Justin Thyme, Eric Hill, Michael Pen, John Meadows
so many questions! Why does the phone operator sound like Lady Bunny? Why haven’t I posted a clip from this before? What’s the music? Where in the West Village is this bookstore and does it still…. hahaha – nope, of course not!
DICK is important. REAL DICK! Not fakes! Phonies!

OK – usually I don’t like to post pics with verbiage, but this last one, from Target Studios’ The Boys In the Back Room is one of my all-time favorite Eric Ryan appearances. ought to dig that clip out, eh?

HA! you got this far! I couldn’t even begin to document his magazine appearances, but here’s one – STALLION 1983 December
Yup, I’ve shown photos of our beloved Bruno many times before, in fact, even from this magazine – like when I sold it in 2017 (NOOOOOOO!); a lovely teaser pic – would you say “no” to Bruno? ; and part of my “beard series” here: beard039… all from photographer Len Tavares. The top one is my fave, but the bottom one might be if it wasn’t spread over 2 pages, which I’m not posting a complete version … but FACE, HAIRY BODY, COCK, FEET, CALF – sigh!
Speaking of the photographer, Len Tavares, I don’t give photo credits enough, but I am trying to remedy that when I can – often the pictures from the sources I use don’t give credit – but I’ve seen his name around Mandates, Honchos, perhaps Drummers, and wondered… anywhere else? Leonard “Len” Tavares was Katherine Hepburn’s private photographer!
Starring: Michael Christopher, Jake Scott, Daniel Holt, Jeffrey Folger, Paul Cambrose, Stefen Peach, Broderick Sterling, Tony Roco, Tad Ryan, Kathi Stewart, Claudette Folger (Michael’s GF)
I know better than to purchase an EZ-Rider version of a porno – they always have missing scenes, or chopped up scenes / movies – or randomly extra scenes from another movie entirely. But, I think it was less than 10 bucks with shipping, and this little tidbit from Gay Erotic Video Index – In 2013, Toby recovered the rights to this video reedited some of the sound and added a documentary segment. Scene 3 was edited out. Scene 5 was added in (??). intrigued me. Above is scene 3, and I can’t figure out why it would get cut. Below is Scene 5, but seems too short. (it does have a coming out scene – kinda funny, but cute). But despite all that, what is terrible about scene 3 is that the poor dude can’t handle Michael Christopher’s cock! If the premise was that it’s his first time, then OK. It’s just oral, and it’s supposed to be his fantasy, but he looks soooo goshdarn unhappy!
Another mystery, when I sold it back in 2002, I indicated it was 59 minutes; the version I have now, same EZ Rider box, clocks in a mere 55 minutes; GEVI gives it 63 minutes, without referencing if that is the old (1983) or new (2013) version. I’m not buying the DVD to find out, but of course am curious if anyone who has it can time it. I’ve seen it for salw occasionally on eBay, and of course on Amazon.

Hard to believe I’ve done so few posts that include Mr. Fisk – tongues-united, and I Love Dick back in 2004! 8 or 9 films, nearly as many Falcon Studios magazines, and of course appearances in Playguy, Torso, Mandate, etc.
