Educational

Interesting cultural history & discussion of differing tat styles (if I understood them correctly), e.g. shading, fine line, Japanese/"Oriental", full color. Makes us non-tat peoples want to go out & get one+. Focus was on two iconic figures - Hardy, & Stoney, and others of course. Filmed & photographed over decades. Liked the do-it-yourself tattoo "gun"/machine - very innovative.
