Pics of the Day
Today’s “Pics of the Day” are from A&F Quarterly, another iconic fashion catalog of Generation X published from 1997-2003. A&F Quarterly was an American lifestyle periodical by Abercrombie & Fitch, targeted towards the college-aged youth (18-22) and as a promotional vehicle for the A&F brand. Its contents prominently feature photo spreads by Bruce Weber. The Quarterly's inclusion of nudity and sexuality was a controversial topic but like International Male provided an escape for many gay men with its homoerotic images.

Hi, Joe, feeling sort of blah and out of sorts from the vaccine shot but nothing serious. I thought I should warn you since you are also having Pfizer. Hope all is well for you on the headache front. Roderick.
Roderick, thanks for the warning. We'll see what happens when I take mine next Thursday. My headaches have not been good the last couple of days, and my neurologist is adding a new medicine to see if it will help. I hope it does.
I remember convincing my mother it was a catalog, so she would buy me A&F Quarterly as a teenager. Good times! lol
Cody, unless my mother found them and threw them away, there is a footlocker in a storage unit in Alabama filled with my old A&F Quarterlies. As a teenager, I had to convince my parents that International Male was a catalog and not porn, LOL.
