> During a trip to the United States, Dr Masaichi brought along some of his prized tattooed skins in a suitcase. In a bizarre twist of fate, the suitcase was stolen while he was in Chicago. The fate of those tattooed skins remains a mystery to this day, with the thief likely unaware of the unique—and eerie—contents of the suitcase.
Imagine stealing a suitcase only to find it filled with tattooed human skin. Yikes.
My partner and I listen to a podcast about tattoos and history called Beneath the Skin on long drives. One of the hosts, Matt Lodder has made a career studying tattooing. As an outsider I didn't expect it to be as interesting as it is and they provide an interesting look at people and history.
