Spaulding & Rogers Tattoo Flash Sheet 136T

This is a vintage tattoo flash sheet, identified by the serial code '136T' in the upper left corner and a copyright mark in the lower left belonging to Spaulding & Rogers Mfg. Inc., dated 1984. The artwork depicts three distinct characters in a style reminiscent of 1980s fantasy comics and heavy metal aesthetics. On the left is a muscular barbarian type battling a green monster; the center figure is a black-and-white line drawing of a horned skeletal knight; and the right figure is an armored, orange-maned warrior wielding a katana. The sheet shows a mix of finished colored renderings and a central line-art template, typical of commercial flash intended for shop display and stencil tracing. The materials appear to be ink and possibly markers on cardstock or heavy paper. The condition seems fair to good for its age, showing some slight yellowing of the paper base consistent with paper from the early 1980s, but the lines remain crisp and high-contrast. This sheet is a representative piece of American traditional tattoo history from one of the industry's most prolific manufacturers during the late 20th century.
