Vintage gay
The “Hat Sisters” at the Esther Williams Water Ballet at Herring Cove 1985
Approximately one year ago on September 24, 2016, John Michael Grey (shown far left) who was one half of The Hat Sisters passed away. Grey is survived by his partner Timothy O’Connor. I wanted to share this photo which is part of a larger grouping of very happy photos of this wonderful couple on a Facebook page dedicated to the legacy of Grey and the Hat Sisters.
I dedicate this weekly post, featuring vintage gay photographs, to the men and women who lived in a more critical time where being true to yourself and loving who you want wasn’t always an option and came at a great price. Do you have a photo you would like to share? Email me at bosguymail@gmail.com.

Vintage gay
This week I’m featuring an endearing photo of one of America’s best 20th century authors, Truman Capote, in a rare shot with his longtime partner, Jack Dunphy. The photo was taken shortly after WWII in Rome, 1949 – a year after they met. The second photo shows the modest headstone where the two men remain buried in Southampton, NY.
I dedicate this weekly post, featuring vintage gay photographs, to the men and women who lived in a more critical time where being true to yourself and loving who you want wasn’t always an option and came at a great price. Do you have a photo you would like to share? Email me at bosguymail@gmail.com.
