Portraits of celebrated (and unheralded) people
Brilliant photos! I have him catalogued as Jim Stewart, but we know that Mr. Mizer (and his contemporaries) were lax or used aliases.
My rule is that Mizer gave one name on the initial publication, and then another — subtly or fantastically different — in a later omnibus publication. It saves wear and tear!
Male Models Vintage Beefcake has him as both, but his catalogue page (2–XJ13) introduces him as Billy Stewart. The above images are XJ 1 A, D, and B.
