Sailor Jerry My Work Speaks T-shirt.
Norman "Sailor Jerry" Collins, the father of old-school tattooing, was a true classic in every sense of the word. A tough old sea dog with a shrewd intellect, Jerry stood up for himself and stood by his work earning him a legacy that is still felt today.
If you really want a true classic tattoo, you'll have to go back in time and cross the Pacific. When you tramp steamer hits the port of Honolulu, jump ashore and head straight to Chinatown. Soon, you'll hit Hotel Street. You'll know you're there by the sudden progression of wide-eyed sailors, foul-mouthed roughnecks and general mayhem. And ther, tucked away on a steamy side street, you'll see the bright red neon glow of "Sailor Jerry's" -the tattoo shop that put ink on the fighting men of the Pacific for nearly 40 years.
As Jerry's busines cards famously said, "My Work Speaks for Itself."
