AD / OBJECT EDITORIAL RECORD

THE STORY BEHIND THE OBJECT.

WHY IT MATTERS

Trucks, jeeps, denim, and Hawk and Bruno, a hairy mustached man showing a younger guy the ropes. Every retro shoot since has been trying to copy this tailgate.

OBJECT STORY

Hawk and Bruno, "men who like their sex on wheels." A hairy-chested, mustached stud in denim with a pickup truck, a Land Cruiser, and a lot of dirt road.

Shot outside in dry grass, mostly black-and-white and duotone with 8 pages of color. It's rugged, sweaty and blue collar, exactly the kind of man they don't make magazines about anymore. A shop's $7 sticker is still on the cover.
