Timeline

1960

Urban's career effectively ended with his final criminal conviction in 1960, which resulted in a one-year sentence and the seizure of most of his work, however he was seen to be advertising in magazines as late as 1963.

Like many physique photographers, Urban faced recurring legal troubles in relation to obscenity laws. In 1947, he was arrested and jailed for sending nude photographs through the mail, a violation of the Comstock laws. In 1956, he was prosecuted again and given a $5,000 fine and a 20-year suspended sentence, which he successfully appealed. On July 1, 1960, Urban's studio was raided by police, who seized his negatives and prints and charged him with possession of obscene materials. Urban succeeded in having the possession charge overturned on appeal, after having already served three months of hard labor. He continued to fight to have his negatives returned to him, and wrote to customers seeking donations to fund his legal case. In 1963, the physique magazine MANual, published by Lynn Womack's Guild Press, printed an "Urgent Appeal" to its readers on Urban's behalf, referring to him as the "dean" of American physique photography.
