Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I was disappointed when I received this book.The title is very deceitful.What the book really showed was posed photographs of rock stars and actors.What was not shown were detailed photographs of tattoos, nor was there really any explanation or narrative about the individual photograph itself.The book is weak and definately not for someone interested in tattoos.However, if your interested in photographs of a few famous people, you should buy the book.
