This post is a guide to what you will find in the mitchmen Club at Adonis Male

The mitchmen Club is the principal archive of Mitchell's published stories and pictures. There are two sections - Images and Files. Most of Mitchell's pictures are published as illustrations to his stories, and the material at mitchmen Club is organised to reflect that. Thus, in the 'Images' section, the pictures are grouped by story into folders. The 'files' section contains a PDF for each story, with the images integrated into the text as it was originally published.

There are also a few themed image folders containing pictures that don't belong in a story.

These are the image folders as of June 2025:-

Tom of Finland - Mr Universe 01

Two leather guys (with hunky bubble butts) ponder the possibilities of bodybuilding, having just read that the 'Mr Universe' competition will be coming to a venue near them next year.

As I explain in my introductory article, to the series, this image is dated as 1963 in the Tom of Finland Retrospective Vol 3, not 1961, the date when this series was first advertised. Arguably, it's more sophisticated, stylistically, than some of the images that follow. The boot tops showing through the jeans show amazing attention to detail. Nevertheless, weight-training by a blond and dark-haired couple does figure in the Universe story, so this image makes the perfect starting image.

Tom of Finland - Mr Universe 02

The buddies embark on a programme of weight training, with their naivety about the subject much in evidence. The blond in the foreground makes a clumsy effort at training with an old-fashioned dumb-bell, which even in 1961* was reserved for comic, circus effect. His dark-haired friend struggles to even lift his more modern, barbell weights. His technique is terrible (bending his back, instead of his legs) but it produces a sight that is sexy as well as amusing.

Neither of them has bothered to change into gym gear for these exertions. So, it's no wonder that the more experienced gym user, watching their efforts, is laughing at them! That's the sort of humiliation that every young man dreads. The on-looker is completely naked and standing suggestively close to the inviting ass, which is screening his nudity from us. It's a juxtaposition which is full of possibilities, but Tom is the soul of discretion.

This particular image, unusually for Tom, has an 'assembled' look, as if separate images have been married together. This was a style that Luger (Colt) would soon make his own. *Like image 1, this image is actually dated as 1963 in the Tom of Finland Retrospective Vol 3. It appeared alongside image 01 above in Physique Pictorial May 1963 (PP12#4) with a snippet bemoaning the neglect of the Universe contest in the generalist beefcake press.

Tom of Finland - Mr Universe 03

As if chastened by their taste of gym culture, the boys head for the beach. The blond seems to have made phenomenal progress, so perhaps we're a few months further on here. He is giving advice to his less advanced buddy. Both of them still seem to have dressed more with an eye to the posing opportunity offered by the beach, rather than donning serious training gear. Perhaps for this reason, both seem to be finding their physical endeavours positively arousing.

The presence of weight training equipment on a beach is probably less surprising to US readers than those in other parts of the world, where the muscle beach phenomenon is virtually unknown. There will normally be other users of the equipment around as well, of course, so the pair may not be spared further ridicule.

This picture has been assembled by me from two separate fragments that were printed in 101 Boys Art Quarterly in Summer 1965. It's not the full picture, one of our readers pointed me to a Tom source where the full size picture can be seen. It's in miniscule size, which I've blown up, but we're not missing much. It's attributed to 1960 by that source.

This picture illustrates the difference in style to the 1963 images, but the apparent fuzziness could easily be due to the reproduction process used by the magazine. It may have been pirated.

Tom of Finland - Mr Universe 04

The blond shows his friend how to do an overhead lift, but his serious mentoring turns into farce as the tiny towel he's tied round his waist becomes dislodged and flutters to the ground. There's a deliciously wry expression on the blond's face, an 'oh-oh' moment. His friend is highly amused and another fine beach specimen, out strutting his stuff, is also there to witness his embarrassment.

This image, like No 3, is cropped closer than Tom's original (see link above). The cropping has the effect of drawing attention to the laughing spectator at the water's edge. No significant elements from the full picture are missing.

Tom of Finland - Mr Universe 05 (extra)

This image of a blond body-builder, turned on by his own physique, is not part of the Universe set, it dates from much later - 1982*. It fits in well, however, as an illustration of the bikers' growing obsession with their new hobby (and the effect on their vanity).

* This image is not at all typical of Tom's other 1982 work, which is all about the leather scene he had immersed himself in. Perhaps it was a nostalgic throwback. In most copies of this image, the wall is washed out and indistinguishable from the mirror, so I have applied AI to bring it out better.

Tom of Finland - Mr Universe 06 (extra)

The change in the bodybuilders' physiques as their development progresses means that before long their old clothes no longer fit them.

This is probably not part of the set either, but it is a near contemporary (1960) and again serves to illustrate the progress of the men's quest to achieve muscledom. The original was (I think) a wry observation on the 1960s fad for sitting in the bath in new jeans so they would shrink to fit.

Tom of Finland - Mr Universe 07 (maybe?)

As the contest draws nearer, the boys go shopping to get their posing outfits.

They are both visibly more muscular.

I don't know for sure if this is a Mr Universe image, it's a maybe. However, the subject fits and the two protagonists look like buddies and are blond and dark haired. The image is listed in the Tom of Finland Retrospective, Vol 2, but is undated. However, it is positioned amongst a group of pictures from 1963. That is also the 'official' date of several of those shown above.

Tom had a bit of a thing about tailors around this time. This image also appears in that article and I speculate that the flared trousers look 1970s, but they were also fashionable in the 60s and often turned up on sailors of course. These days no-one get measured for new clothes and the old jokes about inside leg measurements have gone the way of the ark.

Next time - The Mr Universe Contest.

These Franco images are not so much Lab Rat (see previous post) as Rat Race.

Franco - He's been a naughty boy

To the best of my knowledge, this is an entirely new Franco device.

It's a brilliantly simple concept, with the leg-spreading surface creating discomfort for the rider

and a splendidly sexy view for us. Particularly those with a spanking interest.

An unusual device for an Office, you might think, but it's sophisticated design suggests it gets regular use. Perhaps it's a repurposed ashtray, no longer of any use in a smoke-free environment. At any rate, the Office setting is a refreshing change from the usual spanking worlds of overly-parenting daddies and perpetual education. Franco's all-purpose title doesn't give us much else to go on.

AI is gifting some great new faces for Franco's art. This man's fashionably casual, masculine look provides a great persona for the cube rider, suggestive of calculating ambition and polished presentation. In short, the sort of man who wouldn't want to be caught naked with a plug up his ass.

The hint of sweaty embarrassment on his face says it all.

I have imagined this scene as the interrogation of an Office Manipulator,

caught passing commercial secrets to the opposition.

The Office Manipulator (Franco/mitchmen)

Franco - By The First Few Slaps

There's a marvellous look on this man's face, too. Again, it's as if he's been caught by a new arrival walking in the middle of a humiliating punishment. His jeans suggest he might be a workman from the maintenance department, or perhaps it's a new, literal take on dress-down Friday.

Franco - Stripped and Strapped

The strap is a spanking tool that allows no prevarication or half-heartedness. If it's not applied forcefully it's not going to even reach its target. There's no scope for faking it. So it seems an appropriate device for dealing with this miscreant who seems to be a bit of a bruiser, well able to stand up for himself. It would take a serious misdemeanour to persuade a man like this to shed every stitch of his clothing and accept corporal punishment. Probably Carter from Accounts, caught dipping his fingers into the Petty Cash.

Franco - Introduced To The Strap

Another hunky man discovers the sting of the strap for the first time. Despite his obvious maturity, he seems to have a pristine, virgin ass, if there is such a thing! If he looks the sort of man who can be easily persuaded, his tormentor looks like the sort of man who is used to having his way. The setting looks like a stately home. Perhaps this visitor carelessly damaged a priceless artefact. There are few remedies in law for such a situation, but the threat of a ruinous lawsuit would make a short dose of pain seem like a soft option to one who was relatively inexperienced. He doesn't know, of course, that the artwork he broke was a fake, substituted for just this eventuality. Let's hope he hasn't agreed to pay his debt in installments.

Franco - The Song of the Strap

This strap sufferer looks the exact opposite in character, a toughie with hair on his ass to prove it. That's of little help in giving him protection from a strap wielded as determinedly as this. It's fierceness pays tribute to his butch persona, but, unfortunately, manly hairiness also bestows an obligation on him to bear pain with masculine dignity and not complain. In this image, we've reached the point where his stoicism is breaking down. A roar of dismay finally escapes his lips and his leg lifts in a futile attempt to block the spanker's stroke. It's a moment of triumph for some spankers, to break their man. For others, it's the moment when he ceases to be a worthwhile subject.

Franco - Dad's Mad

I prefer to see this titled as 'The Boss's Unexpected Bonus'. After giving numerous warnings, he's finally taking that lazy guy from maintenance to task for not fixing his radiator. He's amazed and delighted to discover that he's wearing a jockstrap under his jeans instead of the customary desire-dousing, baggy boxers that workmen usually wear. And they're framing the most delicious buns he's ever set eyes on. You can see by the look on the workman's face that it's escalating out of control, but his mesmerising butt is casting a spell that's not going to be easily broken. It's fortunate indeed that he doesn't have to go back to a desk job!

Franco - Fascination

Franco's provided his own narrative here that explores the sense of control a spanker might enjoy, framing it in the context of a consensual sport. His words create a genuine sense of mounting excitement that would create a great video if synchronised with the moment of ecstasy.

Also buried in here is the age-old belief that 'you like it really, don't you?' That is something that seems embedded in the psyche of many men, who can't quite believe that others are not necessarily what they want them to be.

Franco - Daddy's Plaything

For me, there's a sense of mistaken intention here as well, with the young recipient having donned a pair of extremely skimpy briefs to provoke his companion's lust. He believed that the promise to 'batter his ass' was about penetration rather than pulverisation. The top remains inscrutable.

Franco - Bouncin 'n Spankin

Some men really do enjoy it sexually, but you'd be lucky to find one that also looks as good as this. Great, cute face and great physique too, a gift from the Gods. It looks like he's having to concentrate, perhaps wanting to prolong the exquisite joy of pain administered by a generous, patient man.

This is another 'golden oldie' image given a new lease of life by AI.

Franco - Tantrum

AI has gone mad with this image, with stray limbs littering the bottom section, but I wanted to share the key ingredients - (another) great ass billowing out of lowered jeans and a subject who appears to be angrily trying to negotiate a ceasefire when it's obviously far too late! He might desist if he could see the outraged expression it's causing on his tormentor's face. Stop digging pal! I've shortened Franco's original title which is alliterative and defines an age range that I'd rather steer clear of at this blog.

Franco - Paddled

A room furnished in minimalist fashion seems an apt setting for a naked paddling. There's no restraint being applied to hold the subject in position, which amplifies the sense of his total submissiveness to serious power. There's a touch of the Hospital ward in the bed design which might suggest a medical malingerer being exposed, but I see a manipulative pick-up who lies in bed all day rather than pulling his weight by doing chores around the house. It's such a comfy billet that he'll even take punishment rather than lose it. He might regret that choice in the weeks to come.
