Local gay icon Chuck Renslow—who, among other things, is currently president of Leather Archives & Museum, 6418 N. Greenview—has released Kris: The Physique Photography of Chuck Renslow ( $39.95; The Nazca Plains Corporation ) . In 1950, Renslow founded and was the photographer of Kris Studios, one of the earliest and most durable of the physique houses ( and one where leather always had a place ) . The book is chock full of pictures of models ( clothed and nude ) placed in categories such as 'Bodybuilders and muscles'—and don't miss the notes at the end, where Renslow gives some ( more ) provocative glimpses about the men in the photographs.
The book is edited by Joseph Bean, a former executive director of the Leather Archives & Museum. It is available at www.Amazon.com . The prints have been donated to the Leather Archives & Museum..
