Description:
'This is not solely an addendum to the previous volumes, but stands well on its own. The book's physical and emotional core lies in the Baldaev drawings, which are ethnographic, artistic, and surprisingly moving. His unflinching documentation reveals a world of systematic brutality and violence, where prisoners flaunted their savagery on their skin and punished their adversaries, poseurs, and the weak by etching humiliations into them.' - Alarm




This is the final volume of drawings and photographs from Danzig Baldaev and Sergei Vasiliev, which completes the Russian Criminal Tattoo Encyclopaedia trilogy.




Danzig Baldaev documented over three thousand tattoos during a lifetime working as a prison guard. His recording of this esoteric world was reported to the KGB who unexpectedly supported him, realising the importance of being able to establish facts about convicts by reading the images on their bodies. The motifs depicted represent the uncensored lives of the criminal classes, ranging from violence and pornography to politics and alcohol. The illustrated criminals of Russia tell the tale of their closed society.




With an introduction by historian Alexander Sidorov, exploring the origin of Russian criminal tattoos and their meaning today.

Not too sturdy
Size: 15x6.8, Color: Black
Not the sturdiest or highest of quality, but they look good. We attached them to our headboard as night tables and reinforced them with L braces from Home Depot and they work great

Good Stability, But Quality Could Improve
I bought this bathroom shelf on Amazon and overall, I’m fairly satisfied with the purchase. It is sturdy and holds my items securely without wobbling. The assembly process was straightforward and didn’t take much time. However, I did expect it to be a bit wider based on the pictures, so make sure to double-check the measurements before ordering. I also wish the overall quality of the materials was a little better, as some parts feel slightly less durable than I expected. That said, it still does the job well and serves its purpose. It’s not a bad purchase, especially if you’re looking for something functional and affordable.

Great shelves. As you’d expect - and mounting is just fine if you pay attention and hit some studs. I’ve got my wife’s plants on these for over a year with no problems.
