This is a wonderful book for anyone who appreciates the art of tattoo. The subject matter is much more varied & interesting than that found in newsstand tattoo magazines. There are 128 pages of high quality photos on heavy stock. These include many close-ups of beautifully & intricately tattooed people. Also, many tattoo artists from around the world are shown working.
One of the most interesting features of the book is several pages of old clippings and cartoons. There are some fascinating and bizarre stories here. Otherwise, there is no text. Sources & tattoo artists are listed in the back.
The book does contain some nudity, but it is not overwhelming. The emphasis is on the art. The variety here makes it exciting to turn each page.
