Derek Sanderson of the Boston Bruins ice hockey team in their locker room in 1970. Photos by Arthur Rickerby. In the top photo his father is with him. I spent my early years in greater Boston and I can't tell you how famous and lionized he was. He even had his own talk show on local TV.

  1. Bisto is a Brown Gravy dry mix... he seems to be hawking it nude, or parodying the locker room ad genre.

  2. He was pretty relaxed about his nakedness. I admire him for that.

    1. Especially right in front of his (probably uncut) dad.

  3. This makes my day, I grew up there too, my hero was Bobby Orr.

    1. Glad you enjoy! Bobby Orr was a choir boy compared to Sanderson.

  4. Derek is still around and in his late 70s now. These photos must remind him of how good he looked in his 20s tho I don't suppose he expected his naked locker room pics to be so widely seen. I doubt if he minds tho as he was quite a lad in his day.
