"I think that your site is really fantastic.. not only the amazing collection of pictures, but the honesty in the website... I dont get pop-up windows, I dont get spam mail, the price is fair, these are all things that are really important to me on the internet. Thanks for being as old fashioned in your service as your pictures are old fashioned in their content !" - Roger from Seattle, Washington
"I recently joined your site, and I have to tell you it is a fantasy cum true! I dont know what it is, but these pix of the past turn me on like none can! Maybe its the innocence of the models, or the lack of "model look" or whatever, but your pix and site are the best!" - Pierre from Foix, France
"I was delighted to stumble upon your site. It has provided with many pleasant memories of browsing through all those pictorial magazines back in the 40s, etc. I was especially taken with the section on sailors from about ther era of WW II. How well I remember as a young lad checking out the interesting bulges in those tailored navy bell-bottoms around San Francisco during the war. I would love to see more additons in that section--or any other military photos from the time--or hardcore military, etc." - Jack from San Fransisco, California
"I think about what makes PosingStrap.com different from any other erotic site is the innocence and fun portrayed in the pictures. Back before the time before orange-skinned-cookie-cutter-muscleboys paraded on video and EVERYWHERE else on the web, these pictures from the early days seem to really convey the fun of man-to-man eroticisim." - Joao from Vitoria, Brazil
"So often today in the gay world I find so much of that gutteral, rough "Yeah- suck-that-fuckin'-cock" sort of eroticism ... and less and less of that "let it all hang out" exploriatory "pals-messing-around stuff like PosingStrap has. " - Marcello from Oaxaca, Mexico
"Your site is first class. It is well designed, easy to navigate and works well. The content is excellent and extensive. I especially appreciate the fact that the images you select are beautiful and while obviously erotic they are presented in a way that is not sleazy or tacky in any way." - Steve from Canberra, Australia
Our Mission ....
The PosingStrap.com archive and database is devoted to keeping the great photographic studios and models of the physique era alive. (1879-1979) The artifacts of this period of male photography are quickly disappearing. We've reached a special point in time, a moment where many of the original holders of physique era collections and estates are passing on.
Some of estates of the original physique photographers are being split up and auctioned away. Valuable porn collections amassed by our own "Uncle Steve" or "Grampa Jim" are getting trashed so the rest of the family doesn't discover their gay secret. Because of this, our gay community is losing a valuable part of our heritage.
PosingStrap.com membership fees contribute to the costs of procuring, scanning and catalogueing this work and preserving it in this digtal environment for future generations. Our mission includes personal customer service, you'll find real people behind this website who take your suggestions and concerns personally.
