Like Andy Kozak, Dale Curry made his first appearance in his own album and catalogue — although in Curry’s case his future star turn was forecast in tiny print in AMG’s omnibus ZC catalogue, near a glimpse of “Bob [Powers]’s brother” Major Mike Powers.

Unlike the Kleins, who had their own album and catalogue, Andy and Steve Kozak were part of a variety issue. Still, there are a number of solo shots of Steve here, although obviously not so many (available in other albums and catalogues) as for Andy Kozak.

Arnold Klein appeared with his brother Mel in AMG album/catalogue Y.

Good-looking siblings are an aesthetic treat, unlooked-for but welcome. Bob Mizer featured a number of siblings at Athletic Model Guild, beginning with the Kamp brothers and including the Kozaks and the Manningses.
Joe and Jack Kamp (sometimes Kamphuis?) were in the first AMG album, in 1946.
Andy Kozak was one of the most prolific early Athletic Model Guild models, appearing in two solo album/catalogues of his own and supporting another half-dozen models in their solo or in group efforts.

This one is a puzzler, and his partner is identified variously as his brother or (often) as Howard (or Alan) Thomas. I would suggest another candidate: Bill Holland, who makes a solo appearance in a later catalogue, but appears in the first dual variety album/catalogue AMG produced.
