London: James Gardiner, 1999. Paperback. Oblong octavo. 9 x 7.5 in. 144 pp.
Profusely illustrated with black & white vintage period photographs.
"Montague Glover was an architect, an army officer awarded the Military
Cross for bravery during World War I, a talented amateur photographer,
and a homosexual. When he died in 1983 at the age of eighty-six he left
behind thousands of photographs spanning the period from 1918 to the
1950s. They document the three great obsessions of his life: the search
for “rough trade” on the streets of London; men in uniform; and the
handsome East End lover with whom he shared his life for over fifty
years--surmounting all obstacles of prejudice, class difference and
separation. The
result is a remarkable story; not only of the private life of one gay
man, but of the whole hidden history of what gay men really looked like,
felt and dreamed of in the first fifty years of the 20th century."-
James Gardiner has selected the most evocative of Montague
Glover's photographs and put them into context with a commentary
constructed from his own research into gay history, fragments of gay
writing contemporary with the photographs, Glover's own wartime diary,
and letters written to him by the men he photographed and loved.

The seeds of the Leslie/Lohman Gay Art Foundation were planted in 1968 when Fritz Lohman and Charles Leslie held a gallery show of gay erotic art in their Soho loft. In 1990 they became a foundation dedicated to preserving art which many in the art world used to destroy. Ed Cervone "Three Sailor's". Or perhaps Patrick Angus' Hanky Panky - set in an adult peep show movie house. Darold Perkins has taken an Arrow Shirt ad and turned it into an ad instead. Next in the Drawings and Prints category we particularly love Paul Cadmus; the explicit Andy Warhol drawings -- he wasn't Tom of Finland.... but much more than Campbell's Tomato Soup
We offer modern firsts, original photography, the arts, and gay erotica. You will also find a fine selection of signed copies, limited editions, and memorabilia because the goal is to deepen the pleasure of collecting.
