Wanted · Part 2

Four names run down the cover of Wanted Part 2, Al Parker, Jack Wrangler, Sam Benson and Ray Medina, above a warm, sepia-toned shot of two bearded men in a barn with a hay bale in the corner. The magazine never says which man is which, so you get to make your own case. The black-and-white pages lay head-and-shoulders portraits over close-ups of worn jeans, laced work boots, a chain and a pickaxe on a diamond-plate floor, and the men in those frames are all beard, open collars and one bandana headband.

The color pages get down to business. Outdoors, a blond in a blue work shirt holds a rifle upright while a bearded man kneels in front of him, and back in the dark wooden barn the cover pair pick up where they left off. On the back cover two of them stand naked against a tree in the woods, one bearded and one mustached, looking pleased with themselves.
