"Hey Kid!", circa 1969
Scope and Contents
Bizarre Productions, the name of the photography and motion picture production company was repurposed from Rocco's former Hollywood headshop, Bizarre Bazaar. The production company sold his erotic still photographs and motion pictures. Rocco also produced motion pictures as P.R. Productions, [Pat Rocco Productions] and C.R. Productions [Chuck Robinson (Brian Reynolds) Productions].
The series consists of correspondence, catalogs, fliers, photographs and slides along with the business invoices, ledgers, legal action records on behalf of and against Bizarre Productions, tax records, model releases, agreements on the licensing of his films for documentaries, and records of the transfer of Rocco's Hollywood motion picture collection to University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA). The series also includes the correspondence regarding the "I Love L.A." photographic series for an unproduced coffee table book or calendar. (Four folders of photographs of male models posing at or near Los Angeles landmarks can be found in Series 10: Photographs, Subseries 10.1: Rocco Numbered Photographs.)
