There aren't too many things that are sexier than animal prints. As
for myself I like tiger stripes. Both regular and snow tiger. But most
prefer leopard skin. You can't go wrong with leopard. Nothing brings out
a man's masculine sexuality or a woman's feminine sensuality like
leopard.
Edgar Rice Burroughs clad his iconic
hero Tarzan of The Apes in leopard to symbolize his primal power.
Emulating carnival and circus strong men. Tarzan's many imitations (male and female ) would follow suit. Charles Atlas, the legendary
strongman/bodybuilder wore it in his magazine ads.
Hollywood sex symbols were photographed wearing it. Or reclining on it. And more than one burlesque queen did a jungle girl act.
But
no one did leopard quite like the ultimate 50s blonde bombshell Jayne
Mansfield. Leopard was a huge part of her over the top image. She and
her Mr. Universe husband Mickey Hargitay wore it in tandem for publicity
pics.
Mickey Hargitay and Jayne Mansfield were
inspirations for the characters Brad King and Sugar Caine in the Golden
Adonis feature written by Dave Goode and illustrated by Vance Capley.
So was Mark Forest the gladiator movie star who began his show business
career working in the nightclub act of ecdysiast Lilly Christine. And of
course Steve Reeves. Reeves, the former Mr. America, Mr. World, and
Mr. Universe champion even wore leopard in a television pilot about a
Tarzan like hero. Below is a page for the upcoming Golden Adonis comic
book featuring Brad & Sugar modeling leopard.

It's funny how Tarzan is so idetified with leopard skins. But so few movie Tarzans wore it.Usually ones in low budget flicks.
