Tom of Finland's Little Book of Tom. Bikers is a compact collection celebrating the artist's iconic illustrations of leather-clad bikers in homoerotic scenarios. Through Tom's distinctive style combining hypermasculinity with playful eroticism, the book showcases how the artist transformed biker culture into gay iconography. The collection becomes both artistic celebration and cultural document, honoring work that gave gay men powerful, unapologetic images of desire and masculinity.

WHY WE PICKED IT: Because Tom of Finland created images that allowed gay men to see themselves as powerful and desirable. This collection reminds us that representation matters, that leather and masculinity can be queer, and that the most influential art often emerges from marginalized communities.
