BRUCE OF LOS ANGELES ARCHIVE: MALE PHYSIQUE.
2 LARGE BRUCE BELLAS NUDE MALE PHYSIQUE PHOTOS.
Bruce Bellas (1909-1974), aka Bruce of Los Angeles.
American; gelatin silver print on fiber-based paper.
14"h, 11"w each.
Two gelatin silver prints from the archives of Bruce Bellas (model Chipper Cunningham).
One signed "copyright Bruce of Los Angeles, Chipper Cunningham." Some lots in this auction have various handwritten notations on the photos/packaging. Those with apparent significance have been noted and/or photographed.
Nicely framed with museum glass, white passe-partout and black wooden frame.
Photos from the archives of Bruce Bellas were held in storage for years with minimal handling, and overall condition reflects that. We would consider them all to be in very good to good condition. Condition issues we noted, primarily among prints on fiber-based paper, were minor edge wear and some with some undulation to the paper.
