James McCracken Jr.'s 1971 "Untitled ["tattoo" book]" is a small, closed book with a simple drawing of an abstract, worm-like creature in black ink on each page. The minimalist style is typical of McCracken's work, which often features bold lines and graphic imagery. McCracken was known for his unique artistic vision and for his exploration of the boundary between art and craft. This particular work is a good example of his interest in bookmaking and unconventional art forms.
