Oldschool tattoo (also known as traditional tattoo) is a style of tattoo art that originated in the western world, mainly in America, during the early 1900s. This style is characterized by bold, black outlines and solid colors, with a limited color palette used.

The most popular designs in old school tattoo include nautical symbols, such as anchors, sailors, and ships, as well as animals, pin-up girls, and religious icons like crosses and eagles. The style often incorporates banners, scrolls, and other decorative elements to enhance the design.

Old school tattoo was popularized by tattoo artists like Norman "Sailor Jerry" Collins, who opened a tattoo studio in Honolulu during World War II and made the style his signature. Other popular old school tattoo artists include Don Ed Hardy, Bert Grimm, and Lyle Tuttle.

Old school tattoo has experienced a resurgence in popularity in recent years, with many people opting for this classic, timeless style of tattooing. The style has influenced many other tattoo trends, such as neo-traditional and new school tattooing.
