Bob Shaw started tattooing with Bert Grimm in 1942. Except for a 3 year stint in the US Army, he tattooed in St Louis with Bert till 1949. Then in San Antonio Texas, then Biloxi MS and in 1958 he joined up with Col. Bill Todd in Tennesee and Kentucky. By 1964 he was back with Bert Grimm at the legendary Pike. That's just his first 22 years tattooing. #3 on Lyle Tuttles Tattoo Hall of Fame - a true Golden Age Master of Tattoo.
