EDITORS COMMENTS
Tattooing - Drunk Tattooist (Professor Smith) has got carried away" depicts a tattooist, identified as Professor Smith, who seems to have had one too many drinks while working. With a quill pen in one hand and a bottle in the other, he is in the process of inking the words "I love Annie" on his unsuspecting client's back. The client, unaware of the mistake, sits patiently with a shirt lifted, revealing the blank space where the name should be. The tattooist, clearly drunk and unsteady, has made an error in his design, leaving the word "Annie" incomplete. Instead, he has started to draw noughts and crosses, creating a chaotic scene. The chaos is further emphasized by the disarray of tattooing tools and ink pots scattered around the room. Despite the apparent mistake, the scene is filled with a sense of fun and humor. The tattooist's expression suggests that he is oblivious to his error and is enjoying himself, while the client seems amused rather than annoyed. This lighthearted depiction of tattooing in the 1920s offers a glimpse into the past and the human element behind the art form." This postcard is a great reminder that even in the early days of tattooing, there was a sense of humor and fun associated with the art. It is a fascinating snapshot of a bygone era and a testament to the enduring appeal of tattoos.
