Overview

Calling all greasers, hot rodders, burlesque enthusiasts, and kool illustrators and designers—an international survey of work from the world's greatest and most influential kustom graphic artists is collected here in one volume, by an iconic figure in the movement.

Fusing the impact and visual energy of rock'n'roll with the speed and roar of hot rods, and a healthy dose of naked chicks thrown in for good measure, Kustom Graphics presents 250 pages of eye-poping designs from the raucous and rebellious world of lowbrow. It features a specially commissioned silver foil, gloss black, and embossed cover design from Peter "PG" Gustafsson.

Reviews

"The sheer energy of the publication is staggering . . . an inspirational, visual feast." —Total Tatoo (UK)
