George "Professor" Burchett, an English tattoo artist known as the
"King of Tattooists", circa 1930. Born in 1872 in the English seaside
town of Brighton, East Sussex, Burchett was expelled from school at
age 12 for tattooing his classmates and joined the Royal Navy at age
13. He developed his tattooing skills While travelling overseas as a
deckhand on HMS Vincent. Among his customers were King Alfonso XIll of
Spain, King Frederick IX of Denmark, and performer Horace "The Great
Omi" Ridler. Though it was rumored that he tattooed George V of the
United Kingdom, there is no reliable evidence to attest to this
actually being the case.
