The photos of Bobby Pacheco were shot around 1965
and those of Butch Wallace some five years later.
I posted many of these pictures of Butch in an earlier
post, but discovered some today (while specifically
looking for the ones of Mr Pacheco)
that I hadn't seen before and better examples of those
I previously posted. I also felt that
these beautiful young men
complimented each other, in a sense,
harmonizing with each other, and showing
Mel Roberts' talent
for finding young men who were not conventionally
beautiful, but strikingly handsome and
relaxed in their self presentation. They are models,
as far as I know, that only he
was perceptive and attentive enough to employ.
