Body Builder -- Movie Star -- the Arnold Prototype


Eugen Sandow -- the Ahnold of a century ago. One of the first great fitness entrepreneurs and the model for all since. He was the first to make the transition to the modern media when he posed for Thomas Edison's cameras at the Black Moria. The film became one of the most requested items in the Edison Catalogue and is today a staple of film history courses. Posted by Hello
