Was für ein stattlicher Cowboy ! :) Wie ein Legende das alten amerikanischen Westens. Deutsche Sauerkraut-Western, basierend auf den Büchern von Karl May und Figur Shatterhand, sowie italienische Spaghetti-Western waren in Deutschland beliebt. Western aus DDR waren auch deshalb beliebt, weil sie die Perspektive der amerikanischen Ureinwohner widerspiegelten. (vVs)
Cowboys, symbols of American masculinity and the mystique of the Old West. Wonder if Bruce Bellas ever persuaded any of them to take it all off for his camera, as he featured many of his physique models who were not cowboys to pose in Stetsons and other cowboy gear. The limited edition book Rodeo by Vince Aletti features many of the cowboy photos Bellas took at rodeos in California, Arizona, Oregon and Canada. An out of print edition of only 500 that now sells for hundreds. Aletti has another great book Physique with 250 images from that golden age on sale for about 65 dollars. -Rj
