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.
