I feel that this book is a good item to own, for two reasons, if a person is not sure what style they're looking for in a tattoo, this book can help. But also I have people describing to me what they want e.g "...I want a sexy pin up..." "..Well what sort?.." then you can go through the book and show the ones they've selected and ask what kind, edit it to what the person wants etc.
The only down sidfe to this book, is that its full of generic designs, and if your happy to have something out of this book for the rest of your life, just a reminder that :- others who have seen or own this book will most likely have tattoos the same as you.

All I can say is most people on here are easily pleased. Fair enough there are quite a lot of tattoos in the book but the pictures are all old school rubbish. There are also quite a lot that are not really relevant to the UK. Lots of usa stuff, like american flags, indians, harley davison etc. I also find most of the tattoos to be too cluttered. You can't really tell what a lot of tattoos are of because too much stuff has been crammed into them. The colouring in nearly all of them is terrible as if they were drawn in the 1950s without much shading and a fair few of the colours have faded. The very few black and white pictures looked ok fade wise but nothing special.
I have read the mammoth book of tattoos aswell as this one and the mammoth book has much better tattoos in it. With over 500 tattoo photos and more up to date stuff and better colouring. I would advise people to buy that instead of the tattoo sourcebook.

Excellent value for money, and a MUST for tattoo fans
Value for money is excellent, tattoo books with similar pricing will not offer you the same amount of designs. Read more
