Following the success of the tattoo writer in 2022, Akimitsu Takagi‘s book of photographs of tattooing in Tokyo in the 1950s will be reprinted in the first quarter of 2023!

 

As with the first edition, this second print run will be handled by EBS. The Italian printer specialises in beautiful books and is a benchmark in the world of photography, particularly black and white photography. The content (200p., 134 photographs, bilingual French-English) and format will be identical.
