Jonathan Shaw is the owner of the oldest tattoo parlour in NYC: the legendary Fun City Tattoo, which in almost 30 years of activity, can count among its most loyal customers celebrities such as Johnny Depp, Iggy Pop, Jim Jarmusch and Kate Moss.
During his long career, Shaw has collected hundreds of original flashes of the traditional American tattoo pioneers; priceless works that take us back to a forgotten era, when a tattoo cost 10 dollars and if you had one you were a sailor or a convict.
The subjects of these boards are still used as references by traditional artists all over the world: Bob Shaw's iconic 'wolf head', Bert Grimm's tigers, Coney Island Joe's skulls and Sailor Jerry pin up.
Vintage Tattoo Flash brings together over 300 pieces from Jonathan Shaw's personal collection, tracing 75 years of American tattoo history, following its evolution from the early 1900s to the 1970s.
