Gus Wagner – Old School
by Susan on Apr.28, 2009, under Tattoos-Body Art
Gus Wagner was one of the tattoo pioneers dating back to 1904 when he worked his trade and appeared as a side show attraction at the St. Louis Worlds fair. For over 40 years he worked as a traveling sideshow artist. He was married to a circus aerialist and contortionist named Maude who he taught the tattoo trade. The trade was carried onto the daughter who earned a respectable reputation for her art although not having any tattoos herself. He was known as the “Globetrotting Tattoo Artist.’” He died in 1941 he died after being struck by lightening.

Hayie There Buddies! Just dropping by! It’s a quite experience of trusting this product that I had purchased from Drnum. I’ve got this drnumb cream and actually it’s a numbing cream, which I’m using in my shop. My customers are keeping coming back! Let me help you guys with this, for those who wanted a painless tattooing and body piercing, try this! It’s non-oily, water-based and doesn’t interfere with the ink, and this product is medically tested and has a reasonable priced and the best is it has no side effect great for man and woman out there (not applicable for sensitive skin). Did I help yah?? So this is it, let me also help you again by leaving their website on this page, and its http://www.drnumb.com or call their toll-free hotline its 1-888-288-4847.
