    Beefcake

    Beefcake

    With male pornography illegal until the 1960s, it was under the guise of "physique magazines" that the golden age of male erotica flourished. Compiled by Petra Mason, Beefcake: 100% Rare, All-Natural (Universe Publishing, $50) presents an anthology of the best in vintage homoerotic photography, and it's steeped in stripped-down gladiators and oiled-up Greek wrestlers.

    Written, one can assume, between pauses to wipe the drool and, as she so delicately puts it, "cream" from her jeans, Lady Bunny's foreword celebrates the often anonymous -- and often straight -- men who grace the pages of the collection. From daredevils to demigods, cowboys to sailors, there's a prime cut here for everyone.
