The heads seem photoshopped on to the bodies. Or did the skin tone of all their faces just differ that wildly from their bodies’ back then?
I think they wore longer clothes with higher colors back then. They would have a sunt tan from being outside, but only on their head.
Or a dirt tan from heavy industry and coal.
Considering historic mens clothing the latter isn’t implausible.
Just asked something about this, the left one looks like he has a shirt collar.
Why the leftmost one looks like has a shirt collar even though he is topless?
Tan line from his shirt collar. Modern sunscreen wasn’t invented until the 30s.
My wife says the guy on the right end because “he has the sexiest diaper”.
2 from the left. The grandfather of “Bigballs” from DOGE.
I’ll take the looker on the far left. Mmmmhmm, break me off a piece of that.
They must all be named George cause they are absolutely gorg.
Hey, it’s the dudes from Yoshi’s island!
What does it say? There’s no reject all and I can’t be arsed unchecking then manually.
This is a genuine photograph of six men in striped bathing suits in the early 1900s. However, we’ve found no evidence to support the claim that it was taken at a beauty contest.
The earliest internet postings of the photo we could find came in articles concerning the early days of swimsuit fashion. In 2012, Angus Trumble, the Director of the National Portrait Gallery of Australia in Canberra, provided a little more information about the photograph’s origins.
In a brief anecdote, Trumble wrote that the photo was originally available as a postcard captioned “Schöner durch Streifen. Mitteleuropa um 1910,” which translates roughly to “men made more beautiful by stripes. Central Europe around 1910.”
The anecdote in question:
Last evening over an early dinner in New York a dear old friend visiting from Australia gave me this postcard which he found lately in a museum bookshop in Germany. The caption reads Schöner durch Streifen. Mitteleuropa um 1910. The first phrase is difficult to translate with equal concision, but surely means [men made more] beautiful by stripes, and presumably therefore drips with irony.
I fucking knew it
thank you
#2 has an obvious boner
I’m not sure. The shape and position are weird. But so are his pants.
“Hey, my eyes are up here!”
Cover up those bellybuttons, boys
Sluts
#4 With that dazzle camouflage, ready for naval engagements
Fat Tom Hanks is the only one without a moustache. He didn’t stand a chance.
He doesn’t need a moustache when he’s sporting that gargantuan tallywhacker.
Oh nice new avatar
Wait, what?
I have the brain capacity of a dead sloth.
Gonna be honest, I forgot Lemmy had avatars. They’re hidden in whatever layout I use
Same here. Boost for lemmy.
One dude without a mustache lines in a world of regrets and self loathing.
I’m surprised they even let him enter the contest.
Without a snappy stache, he’s got no shot at all.
That looks like tom hanks kid
