BALD COMPANY

My pal Stan has been unearthing lots of weird old photos recently, and sending them to me; including this freaky series he did in the mid-'80s while I shaved my head and attempted a Nosferatu makeup...









When the head-shaving was about half-done, he also captured one of me as sort of a Miami Vice drug dealer villain (that really was the sort of shirt I routinely wore in those days, however)...


He sent me several others, like this one of Stan (taken by me, I guess?) channeling The Great Waldo Pepper; western Pennsylvania, mid-'80s...


...me, same vintage, apparently trying to look like a henchman from an episode of MacGyver...


...Stan, my nephew Zack and me, southern Ohio, 1984...


...and me displaying all the maturity customarily associated with a 22-year-old, giving some poor mannequin her #MeToo moment...
