Synopsis

Ed Roth and the late "Von Dutch" have had a growing following for the past 45 years. The word Pioneer doesn't even begin to describe the work these men have done over their groundbreaking careers. This book shows the best examples of both Roth and Dutch, and contains photos that we all thought were lost years ago. "Von Dutch" (a.k.a. Kenneth Howard) was a very underrated man, who was filled with talent and skills that would revel most of today's artists. This book is a tribute to these artists, allowing the reader to experience the "methods to his madness." This book is a treasure to the art of pinstriping and the "Kustom Kulture" movement.
