G'day to you, Gents.
I have a friend who is rather into 'body art': piercings, markings, et al. I've got no drive to do such things, but nor do I have anything against them. However, seeing him in the halls each morning had me wondering about a certain era we manage to chat about from time to time.
What was the Golden Era's view of tattoos? Were all tattooed types thugs and criminals? My Grandfather was of the view that only Sailors and Criminals should be seen with such markings on their skin, so I would be guessing that this was a rather common view?
Regards,
Craig
