Fantastic photo. Any chance it is Tina Modotti's? Timeline works. (She died in 1942). If possible, send me any further info you have about this image. (Where did you find it?) It's remarkable!!

I have no further info. I searched a while back and couldn't find much. Please try. Modotti might work, but I don't know what her relationship to the gay 'community' is because the boys were preening for the photographer so they felt very comfortable.
Yes, and she might know them. I'm just assuming that the photographer would have known these guys for them to feel so comfortable. It could be here. Would love to know.
