All of the wrestling magazines of the past, going back as far as fifty years, were great. But one thing missing (I suppose for cost purposes) was an abundance of our favorite mat stars in full, natural color. And I mean true color. Not the air-brushed photos in which the artists who colored them must have been on some strange chemicals when they worked.
So, on the rare occasion, when a reader came across a nice full-color photo of his favorite wrestler, it was a special moment.
Here are a few that caught my eye...
THE SPOILER / THE SUPER DESTROYER
(DON JARDINE)
DUSTY RHODES
BARON VON RASCHKE
THE ASSASSIN
(JODY HAMILTON)
KLONDIKE BILL and GEORGE SCOTT
THE MISSOURI MAULER
(LARRY HAMILTON)
