ALAN C. MEAD

This dashing and handsome English gentleman was an inspiration to many of his countrymen. He was to fight bravely and couragiously in "The Great War" (World War I), but lost a leg in the process.

Mead was not a man to have anyone feel sorry for him. As part of his recovery, he began to lift weights and through pure hard work and iron determination, developed one of the most incredible upper bodies of the era. His physique was impressive even by todays standards.

These photographs are from the year 1924 and show Mead in a "most muscular" pose. When Mead was displaying his physique, he would always wear long pants.
