I had heard through the grapevine that Bob Menna and Gia had a bit of a thing going for a while. I wonder if it was when these shots were taken, that is one hot kiss!!!
I didn't know that rumor, very interesting! and yes, they look very passionated in those pictures :p
OH MY GOD BOB Menna U LOOK SO GOD DAM SEXY IN THOSE PICS WHAT I WOULD HAVE DONE TO HAVE BEEN ONE OF THOSE GIRLS LYING NEXT TO U OR KISSING U... PHEWWW.. ARE U STILL MODELING? IF NOT U SHOULD DEF TAKE IT BACK UP AGAIN... U ARE ONE HOT BIT OF ASS...
The model with Charles Williamson is Alva Chinn, not Beverly Johnson.
Oh thanks for the ID!, I didn't know her.
Gia had a few flings with men..as long as they weren't old she said...
:p
I knew Bob Menna from my friend Susan. He worked at the pet shop on First Avenue and 53rd Street. He was always gorgeous and so is his brother. Where is Robby now?
I posted here about a model (no name) writing about him, his daughter and Charles Williamson.
and looking for more info I just discovered that model is Bob Menna:
"Charles Williamson took Bob Mennas daughter to a religious commune and lives happly with her for the last 20 years much to Bobs dislikes!
Bob Menna is an apt manager in LA.

Does anybody know what month and year GQ this editorial is from?
Hi Joanna, I was told it is GQ USA June 1981. ;)
Thanks, Johec!
Oh do I know Menna, he now goes by Robert and yes... still smokin' hot!
it would be great to see an actual picture of him ;)
I will have to get his permission as Menna likes to stay low key these days.
oh no prob! It was not a request, just a thought ;)
I just loved this guy!!! SInce I was a kid, my mom had his photos all over the place. she would never tell me if they had ever met. I had my own fantasies about him many a night. Do you have any more photos??? There is really no one to compare him to these days. I would love to send mom a valentines with him on it!
Hey!!! Would you mind reuploading the photos again? The links are dead and i would love so much to see them in higher resolution, not thumbnails. Thank you!!!
