In den WarenkorbFirst and only edition, first printing, of this unusual study which surveys a range of tattooing traditions for women and recognizes tattooing as an art form. It was issued as Number 1 in the "World Folk Arts Series", though the series was discontinued immediately after this publication. Harold "Hal" Zucker was a regular collaborator with the Samuel Roth, a publisher who was the plaintiff in the landmark case Roth v. United States of 1957; this was perhaps the key Supreme Court ruling on freedom of sexual expression. Together, they published books that, like Tattooed Women and their Mates, were uncommonly frank in their depictions of sexuality and nudity for 1950s America. Octavo. Frontispiece and 62 pages of plates, illustrations throughout text. Original red cloth, lettered in black on the spine, publisher's device in black on front cover. With dust jacket. Spine ends gently bumped, endpapers slightly marked but contents clean; jacket price-clipped, spine sunned, extremities rubbed and nicked, a few short closed tears: a very good copy in like jacket.
