Hey ,

Strydom is back competing and has his own well put togerther

website, as does Rich Gaspari who has his own supplement brand. Not

Hey Mick:

I have a complete collection of mags from the this era and most of

the 90's if you or anybody else is interested in buying some

issues.

I'm holding on to some circa 1954 vintage Weider and all my 70's

issues that I cut my teeth on as a teenager.
