Man there are some awesome photos in there. Met a guy yesterday who had a couple of Henry Goldfield tattoos, fucking rad. Looking forward to being an old tattooer gentleman myself one day..

I think about this quite often. I had a patient who was in his 70's with some great stuff on his arms/chest.

This is circus strongman/tattooed man Rasmus Neilsen; aka the Tattooed Wonderman or Tough Titty.

He directly influenced my mentor Jack; and by default me. You can see the Pharaoh's Horses on his chest but the rest is harder to make out.

The photo was taken in 1948 by a very young Stanley Kubrick. They're selling prints for $250.... I might have to buy one!
