Back when Sam Steward (aka, Phil Andros or Phil Sparrow, author of gay erotica) was tattoing people in his parlor on south State Street in Chicago, the tattoo sub-culture was very different from what it is today. Certainly the reasons for tattooing haven't changed substantially, but in the last decade or so it's become not only socially acceptable, but a kind of fashion statement for many people.Not so in the fifties and early sixties when a tattoo was a sign that you belonged to a certain class. Women didn't get tattooed at all (I met a girl on a train about a twenty years ago who confessed that her tattoo showing under the lace of her wedding dress made her feel like a tramp.) and the men who did were tough guys, or living within some sort of society where they were an accepted part of life. Steward not only tattooed these men, he studied them, talked to them and learned the reasons why they'd chosen to decorate their bodies in certain ways. He investigated the sexuality inherent in tattooing as well as the social issues. He is not a disinterested observer, nor has he written an objective study. But what he gives us is probably far more interesting in its intimacy.While there is probably information applicable to the current tattoo culture in the US, this book really is dated. It's fascinating for students of the time, and of the milieus he discusses, but won't be right for everyone.
If you are interested in the history of modern tattooing, this book will intrduce you to Phil Sparrow a renowned Chicago tattoo artist. His real name is Sammual Steward, Phd., former professor of English at many universities.Bad Boys and Tough Tattoos is a gritty work that lifts the underbelly of the tattoo craft and is great insight as to the personalities of whom are tattooed by Mr. Sparrow.Phil Sparrow rendered three tattoos to me, a young sailor, in the mid-50's in his shop on south State Street in Chicago. He was a close friend of Gertrude Stein and Alic B. Toklas. He was also very helpful to Alfred Kinsey in his publishing his epic study of human sexuality. A good and quick read.A complete biography of Sammual Steward aka Phil Sparrow was recently published by Farrar, Straus and Giroux, written by Justin Spring, entitled; Secret Historian.
Having 4 tattoo's applied last year at the ripe young age of 50, I was fascinated by this book. Tattoo's in the 50's & 60's apparently were taboo except for the underbelly of life. Looking at how they are accepted today as opposed to then is astounding. The syndicate was even involved in the 50's. The book actually had me laughing out loud at some of the situations this highly educated man faced when he gave up teaching English at a major university and took up tattooing. If you have any interest in tattoo's be sure to purchas this one.
Incredibly informative and hilarious account of the life of the 20th century's greatest tattoo artist
Wow-- no words were spared in the making of this great read! The words have swagger, spunk, sensation -- the descriptions take me there, back to that period, which was when I was a little kid in a great big, grey biiig city, (NY) wondering about the world around me, and holding a special fascination for that world's "underside" (yes, even 5 yrs old kids think certain things are cool) . , I always recommend this book my friends in the tattoo business. The price should go down-- a second printing would not be a bad idea, IMHO.
This interesting book comes from an era that is now far gone. As a child, just after WWII, I saw men with, primarily, service tattoos and wanted one. It was carefully explained to me that "nice men" did not get tattooed and that the service tattoos weren't truly tattoos but the equivalent of service stripes. As a six year old child I found this confusing.What Dr. Steward has done is gathered impressions of what it was like to be a tattooist circa 1950 on to about 1970. His portraits of sleazy interior malls and the persons who frequented them are chillingly real as are the sad impressions of his clientele.For me, still un-inked, the larger story here is the conversion from the groves of Academe to the existence of a journeyman tattoo artist. We have his intellectual observations, as well his intimate relationship with the Kinsey Institute,to provide not only a look at the deductive logic behind getting a tattoo, at least at a certain socio-economic level then, are revelatory but perhaps only to then.The wide spread acceptance of tattooing today (the last statistic I read said over 35% of men today have one)make this interesting reading if not germane to lifestyles today. Yet it has substance and to those with a taste for not only tattooing but the sexual implications, this will confirm much of what may have been thought. Dr. Steward's open acknowledgment of his sexual preferences de-fuses any leering speculation as to what might really have been his motives.Still, for those who want an atmospheric, well constructed picture of an era, this book will fill in your urge to return to the "greaser" age. And for those of us who wanted one, but were denied, perhaps liberate our minds to, now, go get what we wanted then. If I had the hair, give me a flat top with a D.A. And that knife piercing the bicep just below the pack of Camels rolled in the sleeve of my black T-shirt.
