Tattoo History | George Burchett | Modern Electric Tattoo

Streaming everywhere, every Sunday!

Known as the “King of Tattooists,” George Burchett was arguably the most famous tattoo artist of his time. Tattooing in London throughout the first part of the 20th century, he catered to both the social elite and the working class, as well as members of the Royal family.

I wanted to include some British Pathe! Newsreel of George Burchett That I found but, sadly, copyright prevented me!

Here's a link to the original footage, it's fascinating:    • Painting The Lily! (1936)
