Untitled ["tattoo" book] 1971

James McCracken Jr.'s 1971 untitled "tattoo" book, features a simple black and white image of a stylized lizard on a cream background. The bold, graphic style of the image is reminiscent of traditional tattoo designs, which McCracken Jr. collected extensively. The book, with its small dimensions, was part of McCracken Jr.'s exploration of different artistic mediums and formats. It's a captivating example of his interest in the graphic arts and his ability to create powerful imagery through minimal means.
