Digital Reprint
This 4"x6" print shows 4 shirtless young men who are about to compete in the Caber Toss, in which they have to throw some big wood, and whoever pitches theirs the farthest, wins.They are all shirtless, wearing athletic shorts that button in the front, and they are all wearing track shoes, likely for the traction you need to get all that wood up in the air. The man closest to the camera has a very short military buzz cut. You'll not that all of these men have a fairly even musculature because they need upper body strength to throw the log, and good leg strength to make their approach while at the same time lifting. This sport has to be pretty rough on the back: it's definitely a young man's game.Checkon this link to see the entire Gay Man's Estate Collectionof photos.Note that because of the enlargement from my scanner, the image shown here is slightly more blurry that the print you will receive.
