"Professor"
Henry W.Titus
Though
a short in stature and slightly built for a muscle champion,
"Professor" Henry W. Titus was a sensation. He built
a large mail-order muscle-building business in the mid-1920's.
He presented a genuine bronze medal to those men who completed
his course and sent in their photograph as proof of their
success. Here again is a man who understood that natural bodybuilding
could actually be beneficial to a persons overall health,
and not just for the development of muscle for appearance
sake alone. You were right, Professor.
