Thanks for shedding light on that - it pretty much reveals, what kind of character Joe Weider actually was, no need going into further details..

Man, my Brother went through a lot so others didn't have too. Big ups to Mr. Robby Robinson!

In 1974 I worked out in the pit with Arnold Schwarzenegger And Franco Columbo and Robby Robinson and alot of the superstars of bodybuilders but I had no idea about Joe Weider and his Racist Attitude no idea about that but I remember how much fun it was to work out with these guys of that Era it is something I will never forget

That is CRAZY! I never heard that story. But I clearly remember my reaction to seeing that Weider bust and wondering who's body that was. I assumed (like I'm sure most fans at that time) that it was an imaginary rendition. For a guy that never wanted to recognize or compensate blacks, he sure did enjoy stealing from them. I guess that's what racism looks like in commerce.

As teenagers, we all agreed that Joe Weider's physique NEVER looked as good as that bust! lol! Late '80s and early '90s, we'd seen some photos of the Joe Weider physique both as the older man that he was and when he was young. He really was a PT Barnum-type salesman, wasn't he?! I did see it mentioned a few times over the years that Robby Robinson was the model for the iconic bust.
