"vintage or when men had pubes"

KELLY "KERMIT" DEAN was a Bob Mizer and David Hurles of Old Reliable model. I never heard anything about him being "special" but I do not think he was a Rocket Scientist. He was trade I believe like many of the AMG and OR Models. He claimed that he was "Str8" like many male models in that time period.
He was born in 1962 and began working for Bob Mizer around 1983. I think he worked for OR and FilmCo until 1991. KERMIT died in 2004 at the age of 41.

I should know better than to ask but do you know how he passed? Was he in California? Always enjoyed his photos and videos. Seemed like a nice guy. Thanks!
 
Seems like it would be a wild coincidence for there to be two Bob Chandler's the same age that posed nude over a decade apart. And the proximity of the USC campus and Bob Mizers studio are so close. Walking distance really. All very curious. Bob stopped appearing with AMG as the college football career of Bob took off. Could be a coincidence. Not sure what I am getting at. Glad to see these photos here. Hot model and great athlete.
A Rich Friend of Bob Mizer from San Francisco came to visit him and brought a date who was a Man named Bob Chandler. (First photo) The Man named Bob Chandler was also from San Francisco and he had a serious criminal record that Bob Mizer did not know about at that time. The rich man was willing to make a large cash donation to Mizer to run AMG if Bob Mizer would allow his date Bob Chandler to model for him and make a short film. This Bob Chandler had a lot of Prison Tattoos from doing time in Prisons. Mizer did allow San Francisco Bob Chandler to pose for him and make a short film and Mizer got his large cash donation from his wealthy friend.
At around the same period of time but not on the same exact day there was another Bob Chandler from Los Angeles posing for Bob Mizer. This Bob Chandler was the famous USC/ Buffalo Bills FootBall Player who would later on pose for PlayGirl.(2nd Photo) He did not have any Tattoos and had never done time in Prison. Because these 2 Men had the same name some Vintage Physique sites got the 2 different Men confused and thought they were the same person. They were not. The photo on the LEFT is San Francisco Bob Chandler and the Photo on the Right is LA FootBall Player Bob Chander.

Thanks so much for the details and background. Much appreciated. It was the tattoos and ears I couldn't reconcile. Fascinating story. I like both Bobs. That k you!

BOB KOLINSKI posed for Chuck Renslow of KRIS of Chicago. BOB KOLINSKI sometimes makes the lists of the Top 10 favorite Vintage Physique Models by serious collectors. However since BOB never posed fully frontal nude I consider him to be "worthy of mention" and not a true top 10. Just my opinion.

MIKE BRADBURN by Chuck Renslow of KRIS of Chicago in 1964. MIKE just had everything --he was an intelligent JOCK from the MidWest and was attractive just doing ordinary things. MIKE was in several short films for KRIS and never did the West Coast Studio scene. MIKE BRADBURN sometimes makes the lists of the Top 10 favorite Vintage Physique Models by some serious collectors. A personal favorite of mine. "Cabin in the Woods" was great because of MIKE BRADBURN with Ron Renslow.

Rear View of Johnny Amati (L) and Bud Carlson from the KRIS Studio 1967 film The Newspaper on the Beach shows the Great Asses of these two Men side by side.!!
In the Film Each Man thinks the other Man is a Dangerous Escaped Convict.!!!
