Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)For the first time since the early 1970s there is a book showing the "real" tattoo artists.Some of the photos go back to the 1900s.Many of the historical photos were from Tattoo Archive in Berkeley California, along with the collection from Lyle Tuttle a noted Tattoo Artist and collector.The later photos were donated by each featured artist.
Author Madame Chinchilla, has shown the progress from "hand-poked" tattooing of Gus Wagner to the modern work of today.The unique way of presenting the artist and his machine(s), shows the true nature and feeling of their style of tattooing.The text is a combination of the authors and the individual artists. A real credit to the publisher.
The only "down side" to this book is a few of the photos are not the best quality.The historical photos are expected, but a few of the later ones sent in by the artists are a bit "fuzzy." All the photos are in black & white, most present themselves very well, others could be better. The publisher also has a similar book on "Tattoo Women."
