Horst Heinrich Streckenbach "Tattoo Samy“ (August 5, 1925 - June 27, 2001) was a well-known German tattoo artist and historian of the medium, who had been tattooing since 1946. Streckenbach is considered important in the development of tattooing in Germany.〔Marcel Feige: ''Das Tattoo-und Piercing Lexikon'', ISBN 3-89602-209-1, S. 282〕 With his student Manfred Kohrs from Hanover in Germany from 1974 - 1978 he developed a rotary tattoo machine〔(chinatattooneedles.com )〕 and in 1975 the barbell. ==Biographical and career information== Streckenbach was born in 1925 and grew up in Weißwasser, Schlesien, Germany. He got his first tattoo at the age of ten. In 1946, he began tattooing professionally. In 1947, he opened his own studio in Frankfurt, and this was open for nearly 40 years. Samy tattooed several notable musicians, artists and celebrities of the time.〔Marcel Feige: ''Das Tattoo-und Piercing Lexikon'', ISBN 3-89602-209-1, S. 283〕〔(Marcel Feige ) Marcel Feige, german〕 Over the years Samy went to the United States a number of times and frequently to Los Angeles to visit Jim Ward. On one of his first visits, he showed Ward the barbell studs that he used in some piercings. They were internally threaded, a feature that made so much sense that Ward immediately set out to recreate them for his own customers. On the first National Convention at the Cosmopolitan Hotel in Denver, Colorado from 23–25 March 1979〔 Mississippi Gulf Coast´s Observer, September 2012, Volume 13, Issue 3, p. 36〕 Tattoo Samy made a slide presentation of tattooed people.〔(National Tattoo Association, N.T.A. )〕 The speakers on the convention were: Terry Wrigley, Peter Tat 2 Poulos, Diane Poulos, Don Ed Hardy, Bob Shaw (who even back then spoke about the importance of using Autoclaves and keeping you and your place clean), Big Walt Kilkucki, Painless Jeff Baker, Dave Yurkew, and Arnold Rubin & Jan Stussy.〔(National Tattoo Association, N.T.A. )〕 Streckenbach, Kohrs and Terry Wrigley (1932–1999) -President of E.T.A.A-,〔(tattoo archiv terry wrigley ) 〕 present 17–19 October 1980 at Frankfurt the first "Tattoo Convention" in Germany. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Horst Heinrich Streckenbach」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
