Gratuitous Steve McQueen II

.
Three things conspired this here Monday to force Steve McQueen onto my mind (well "force" implies I resisted, and dear Mr. Steve McQueen I would never have resisted, never). Firstly I woke up with someone having left a new comment on this post I did last year about how Jeremy Renner wants to play McQueen in a bio-pic (the commenter likened Renner to "a middle-aged lesbian" ... so that'd be a vote in the "no" column s'my guess).

Secondly I posted that picture earlier from the set of Twelve Years a Slave, which was directed by the other Steve McQueen, the large black Englishman one, who gave the world the neverending gift of the Fasscock. Anyway from Steve McQueen to Steve McQueen... not a big leap y'know.

And thirdly, did you know that today is Left Handers Day? My guess is if you are left-handed you maybe did, and if you are right handed then you had no fucking clue. Well it is. And so I was looking thru a list of famous left handed people and whaddya know Steve McQueen was left handed. Obviously, this was meant to be. I've posted plenty of Steve before - specifically, see here and here... and oh here - but I've got plenty more, so why not. Hit the jump for 'em...

Photo set 2 where steve has briefs on is from a larger set taken in early1960's and published in movie magazine of that time, my mom purchased them, I cut them up for scrap books as a preteen. One in the set is of Steve doing push ups in his bathroom in those briefs in from of the sink with large walll mirror. Have you seen it. I have the copy from the mag but is is clued in my scrape book. Help!
