i live in a belgian provincial town, that had its own famous wrestler, once upon a (later than your pictures) time; the pose, it does remind me of him, i knew him vaguely as he was growing old...
Wow, those sound like some incredible finds!
Hi Scott,
I'm not sure what you would call them either - other than maybe retouched press photos. As you said, they do take on a whole other feel to them once they've been altered. If you have a collection of them you should make a book of them! Jim Linderman is making a few great looking self published books these days on somewhat similar topics. Self-publishing software makes it so easy these days. One of these days I'm going to make my own on folk art articulated figures.
Thanks for the kind words about the blog. I just think there should be some visual archive for these objects that appear for a few days out in the world and eventually go back into private collections.
