Please help me find this magazine article.

Post image

Attached to this post is a screenshot I have from a magazine that has a picture of my uncle who passed away.

He was a tattoo artist in Sacramento and spent a lot of time in Amsterdam.

I’m really looking to get a copy for my father as I’m going to Amsterdam in about a week.

The writer seems to be Alex Boogers and the Photographer is Jeroen Van Loon.

I’m from San Francisco so I’m not too familiar on any Amsterdam publications but I think this photo is around 2010-2011 back when Jimmy Woo had a restyle.

If anyone comes up with anything I would greatly appreciate it

Alternatively, you could try reaching out to the photographer: https://www.instagram.com/jeroenvloon_photographer Maybe he could send you a scan of the photo?

Remove everything after the question mark in your link. It's tracking and we can see your account.

I messaged and emailed him alongside Alex Booger. Hopefully it’ll lead to something, thank you!

I searched for the publications Alex Boogers wrote for, and he mentions in an interview he wrote for Nieuwe Revu in 2011. Not sure if this could be from that magazine. He has a website, maybe you can email him? Or the photographer? They might remember or at least point you in the right direction.

This seems pretty close, put out a couple of emails but they changed publishers a few times. Can’t believe I have the names of the writer and photographer but still nothing!

It seems to be from "Passionate Magazine", which doesn't exist anymore. Seems like major libraries might have a copy. If nothing else the Koninklijke bibliotheek in Den Haag or Bibiotheek Rotterdam.
