Beware: deficient binding H. thomas Had the first book, was very satisfied, thought the second would be at least equal if not better: wrong.Tattoos are less spectacular than the ones on the first book, pictures are "flat", poor definition, and most of all, the binding is really pitiful. I like books, treat them good, this one was messed up waaaaaay before the end of the first reading. I shipped it back, hoping it was only an accident: wrong. The replacement was the same, pages falling apart after an hour, binding really cheap.Disappointing. . "Belongs In Your Collection - You'll Need 2 Copies For Your Tattoo and Art Section" according to Todd Buster Paris. It's funny, when I grabbed the book to put next to my laptop so I can type the review, I flipped through pages and rediscovered just how great this book is and sure - there are tons of tattoo books out there, heck - there's tons of tattoo images we can all just Google to look at, but The Mammoth Book of Tattoo Art belongs in your collection. It's full of interesting, beautiful and unique tattoos.Some reviews really depend on your (the reader's) intentions in buying the book. However, for this book, it pret. "Good book, terrible binding." according to Mr. Sweeps. The content of the book is quite good. The photos are all clear and the subjects interesting. The problem starts with the book itself. The binding is absolutely horrible. Pages started falling out after less than a day of normal, careful use. A few days later, the entire cover is barely hanging on. Buyer beware.
