I have to confess, right off, that I do not have a tattoo. I have never seriously considered getting a tattoo. Though sometimes I do find some tattoos attractive. But the tats in this book. Oh man! As works of art, many of the included subjects are quite exceptional and many are in their way magnificent. But some of the things depicted? You won’t believe it. From Bob Barker (former long time host of daytime TV’s The Price Is Right) on an arm, to a bald guy with a realistic face tatooed on the forward top of his skull these tats are just amazing. Very photo-realistic tattoos of Chuck Norris and Telly Savalas (anyone here old enough to remember Kojak?) sucking a lollypop, Homer Simpson as a stoner/biker. Tats of bongs, piles of shit, aliens, Alf and even one of (quite literally) Jesus fucking Jesus, the tattoos are simply amazing. Whether you are inked yourself or just admire extaordinary tattoos, No Regrets is Highly Recommended.
