    Universal Newsreel 1952: Weight Lifters Show Muscles / Mr. America

    The sports segment of Universal Newsreel Vol. 25 Release 574, released 30 June 1952, excerpted from 3:21.5 to 4:37.25 of the full reel; 1 minute 16 seconds, black and white, with sound. According to the original release sheet quoted on the source page, this was a double event in New York: Olympic weightlifting trials held together with the Mr. America contest, with the weightlifting won by John Davis of Brooklyn; neither the release sheet nor the footage names the Mr. America winner. On screen, lifters press barbells overhead on a theatre stage with weight boards at the side and an applauding audience, followed by the Mr. America line-up, individual posing showing back and biceps, and reaction shots of women in the audience. It is a direct record of bodybuilding sharing a stage with Olympic weightlifting and reaching cinema newsreels in the early 1950s. Source: U.S. National Archives Universal Newsreel collection (copyright deeded to the U.S. Government by MCA/Universal in 1974); the per-reel exception notice has not been individually verified, and the item will be taken down on receipt of any rights objection.

    Sandow (1894)

    Filmed on 6 March 1894 at Edison's Black Maria studio in West Orange, New Jersey; about 40 seconds, silent, black and white. Eugen Sandow stands against a black background, hands behind his head, and moves through a series of poses that show his upper-body muscular development. The whole film does one thing — display a physique to the camera — which makes it a direct record of how muscular display was already being staged at the very beginning of cinema.

OLD FRIENDS

Old Friends club, opening soon.

A meeting place for long-time members who know bodybuilding culture: weekly topics, classic figures, training talk, memories of the old site. The first pinned topic will ask your old username and when you first visited; it opens only with a real moderator on duty.

Planned according to the V1.0 Bodybuilding Films and Old Friends proposal. "Nostalgic content brings people back" is an untested assumption, so no expected traffic is stated; no sample popularity is shown before real votes and comments exist.
