​Each Thursday, your Crap Archivist brings you the finest in forgotten and bewildering crap culled from basements, thrift stores, estate sales and flea markets. I do this for one reason: Knowledge is power.

Young Physique Magazine

Date: August, 1961

Publisher: Body Builder Publications

Discovered at: Olathe estate sale

The Cover Promises: “Behold my mighty branch!”

Representative Quote:

“Coming across a large manila envelope in our morning mail from Milo of Los Angeles always evokes a sensation of genuine pleasure, for in that packet we invariably meet a new model of handsome face and impressive physique posed in photographed in the inimitable Milo manner. You can imagine how pleased we were to find Dennis Sheeler on our desk a few days ago. Wouldn’t you be, too?”
