Sailor Jerry Tattoo Flash Art Print American Liberty Pin Up Appraisal

Sailor Jerry Tattoo Flash Art Print - American Liberty Pin-up

This is a contemporary art print of a classic tattoo flash design in the traditional American style, famously attributed to Norman 'Sailor Jerry' Collins. The artwork features a pin-up woman draped in a banner reading 'LIBERTY', standing before a bald eagle and an American shield motif. The color palette is dominated by a vibrant red background, with the central figure rendered in warm skin tones and the iconographic elements in deep navy blue, gold, and white. The technical style is characterized by bold black outlines, limited color gradients, and stylized, iconic imagery typical of mid-20th-century nautical tattooing. The text 'SAILOR JERRY' is visible in a stylized script on the left side, serving as a signature mark. Physically, the item appears to be paper or cardstock with a matte finish. There is visible wear where the print is being held, specifically slight bending and light surface artifacts, suggesting it is a loose sheet rather than a framed piece. The print is a reproduction of designs from the 1940s-1950s era of tattoo history. The craftsmanship reflects modern printing techniques used to replicate the look of vintage hand-painted flash sheets with high color saturation and clean graphic lines.
