Rooftop Films presents: Hori Smoku Sailor Jerry
We just got word of this cool event from Rooftop Films. On Saturday, August 7th, they’ll be showing Hori Smoku Sailor Jerry at the Old American Can Factory. The film is a documentary exploring the roots of American tattooing through the life of its most iconoclastic figure, Norman “Sailor Jerry” Collins. There’s also an after party with an open bar and, of course, Sailor Jerry Rum.
“Hori Smoku Sailor Jerry is a feature length documentary exploring the roots of American tattooing through the life of its most iconoclastic figure, Norman “Sailor Jerry” Collins. Considered by many the foremost tattoo artist of all time, Collins is the father of modern day tattooing, whose uncompromising lifestyle and larger than life persona made him an American legend. Through rare interviews, photographs and hours of archival footage, Hori Smoku Sailor Jerry: The Life and Times of Norman Keith Collins, explores the past, present and future of the global tattooing phenomenon.”
