Most Wanted Man

Whitey Bulger

Whitey in 1959That dashing young man would one day become one of the FBI’s most-wanted men, but let’s stop for a moment to appreciate a different kind of desirability he once had. That head of hair alone makes me jealous, but you also have to give him props for style. As Esquire says: “the mug shot is a strange amalgam of Jim Stark and Roger Sterling. He’s the rebel with a cause, the real tough from whom the Hollywood toughs were ripping off their style.”

Notorious mobster Whitey Bulger, we can’t condone your actions, but nevertheless we salute you.

Pink Mince 5

Pink Mince #5, obvs. All the Tumblr attention isn’t that much of a surprise (there was a certain shameless pandering to my art direction for that article), but I wish all the visibility would lead to a few more sales. It’s hard running a small press, yo.

But I am delighted to see my associate Mr Moore’s exquisite Leyton getting a little extra attention as a result of that image. Maybe super-black typefaces with a dash of swing will become the rage of the bear community! That’s why I made the {BEAR HUG!} t-shirt, just in case.

My Daguerreotype Boyfriend

While I’m tempted to just repost every single image from My Daguerreotype Boyfriend, I’ll show some restraint and just make this one choice and urge you follow along the site itself. Or, if this sort of thing resonates with you, you might consider picking up Leftover Beefcake, the latest Pink Mini. This sort of thing is certainly right up my alley.
