Remember the free-lovin' days of anything goes sexual escapades, bell-bottom-wearing boys with feathered hair on the verge of manhood, the drug-soaked '60s and '70s? Thanks to the brilliant and beautifully color-saturated images of photographer Mel Roberts, it all becomes crystal clear just how saucy and stylish the boys were back then. In this new book, California Boys: The Wild Ones, Mel Roberts delivers truckloads of groovy, Age of Aquarius boys posing for the camera absolutely naked. Let the sunshine in...

If you've got a thing for yesteryear's studs with raging erections in everything from tight, cock-showcasing pants to mesh tanks, this book's for you. Honoring the 78-year-old photographer's practice of selling photographs exclusively through the post, FotoFactory Press is offering this, his second book via mail order only. Very limited quantities have been printed, so order your copy today. A truly unique hard-to-find gift for yourself or that special friend. Ask your local store to carry this classic of gay photography.

On August 26, 2007 Mel Roberts pasted away in Los Angeles, California. At the time of his death, he resided in the same home in Bel Air inwhich he lived in for over 50 years. Many of the photographs in his books, magazines and videos were shot in the house and around the back garden.

He is now reunited with an army of former lovers, models, fellow World World II buddies, photographers and film makers. Many of which he spoke of with great joy throughout his life. Mel Roberts was just three weeks shy of his 84th birthday having been born on August 26.

Thanks, Melvin, for all the beautiful men you have shared with us all!
