Whether you're thinking of getting a tattoo or just want to see to what lengths others have gone in decorating their bodies, this is the book to check out. Tattoos explores the history of the art worldwide, from classical to contemporary. This new book, though reduced from the original klotz version, covers a wide range of tattoos, from the humorous to the outrageous.
Another great coffeetable book find at our local fremont library (oh I am such a slut for the library!) The best collection I've seen of tattoo'd women of the circus and 1950's members of the bristol tattooing club. I'll be on the search for more like these...
