“It's not going to surprise you to learn that ‘Charles Atlas’ was not his real name (because that's not anyone's real name.) What is funny is that his real name also sounds fake; he was born Angelo Siciliano (which sounds like what JK Rowling would have named an Italian wizard.)”

– Robert Evans, Behind the Bastards, Part Two: The History of American Masculinity Grifters

Pages from a Charles Atlas leaflet from 1939 promoting a correspondence course with instructions how "in just 7 days YOU can have a body like mine." Leopardskin trunks not included.

From the Open: Wellcome Collection on JSTOR. 100K+ open access images, no login needed.

It's late already so let's start tomorrow morning and check in next week to see if the course worked, shall we?
