Description: Tattoo Lexicon, by world-renowned tattoo artist Henk Schiffmacher (aka Hanky Panky), is the product of over 15 years of travels spent collecting books, artifacts, and photos to display at his tattoo museum (as featured in our best-seller, Modern Primitives).

Here is an encyclopedia about the history and art of tattooing, an A-Z resource guide on everything you want to know about the trade. It includes celebrity (musicians, actors, writers, athletes) tattoos; tattoo artists past and present; tries, cultures, kings, czars, and circus performers involved in tattooing; tattooing in literature, art, and religion; slang, professional talk, explanations and descriptions of symbols; and an international tattoo shop directory. This book is full of photos and illustrations, flyers, maps, etchings, designs, and much more. It is the essential handbook on tattooing, perfect for both the tattoo aficionado and the novice.
