Yep that's my dad! Wrote a course on bodybuilding when he was a barber in like 1963 or something like that... You've seen that photo if you read any comic books in the 70s or magazines in the 70s or 80s. If you want to see something nostalgic, check out the tribute site one of my brothers put up:

Quite proud of dad! He sold as many or more courses as Charles Atlas for all the years he was in business. He was quite the entrepreneur, in the 70s every Marvel and DC comic book had anywhere from 1-5 ads of his in it. Bodybuilding, Kung-Fu, Cartooning for Money, How and Where to Pick Up Beautiful Girls and lastly 2000 Ways to Make Money.
Cheers,
