Six Vintage Original Mid-Century Vernacular Polaroid Photographs of a Nude Male Model with Indications of Use for the Study of Human Anatomy

Photographic Image. Very Good. No Binding. Collection of six black and white deckle-edged Polaroids on 3 ¼" x 4 ¼" Land Roll Type 47 Film of a nude male model in a series of relaxed poses in front of a locker room/bathroom scene. These were likely taken during the mid-century beefcake era of photography, wherein nude male photography was highly published and popularized. Two of the photos are full-frontal nude, one is a shot of the model's full backside, one is of the model's full-length portrait, and the last one is of the model's full backside with undergarments. This last photo also includes a pen drawing of a human stick figure, which reminds us that nude photography is not only for erotic pleasure, but has a long history of being used for the study of human anatomy, particularly in the visual arts. These photos are all in very good condition. .
