Category: Cadinot

Karl Forest (who we remember from Wallace Potts’ film, Le Beau Mec (1979) ) – this found in a presumably Jean-Daniel Cadinot magazine, Leather Man – “presumably” because the 48-page magazine has no information whatsoever – no model names, no publication date, no photographer name, no page numbers, and just “HCI” on the cover, which is the publisher I guess, and of course the name of the magazine … but, I know the style – it’s definitely Cadinot.
Karl is a mere 2-page, 3-pic spread, and, well, this is his backside.

From the J-D.C. publication American Story (1978), part of the Masculin magazine series – this is Masculin 2. I was just typing “no credit on this or any of the models”, when one of the last pages does give names, and inspiration! Apparently each photosession was inspired by an American film. This gentleman is Ducko Vucko-Vic, and inspiration comes from the 1955 film East of Eden – well, how ’bout that!

from Masculin 8 – Hell’s Angels: Leather; I don’t have a publication date, but likely mid 70’s. I’m trying to put together a Cadinot publication list – in the drafts folder, of course – but it’s taking a lot of time! meanwhile, also trying to collect some hard copies, like this recent acquisition.

i just love the french smoke
