Greetings, and welome to my small and humble gallery of Tattoo antiquities. The next few pages contain scans of some GOTTA-SEE old photos, some dating as far back as 1910. Also I have put a few BEAUTIFUL pieces of antique flash on a couple of these pages. I still have a boxfull of these photos and flash pieces (all originals) on loan from their owner, the owner of Fay's Tattoo shop, 'Doc' Balch. All of these pieces are in his private collection of antique tattoo related memoriblia. Special thanks to Doc for making all of this history available to us here on the Web. If I get good feedback on these pages, i will gladly expand the pages to accomodate more works, more NOSTALGIA for all of us to enjoy.

Special thanks to Doc, to my ISP WaveComputers.net for not yelling at me over the space i'm eating up!, and to my good friend Bedlam who is my HTML GURU! Visit Bedlam's sites! Though not tattoo related, he has some great art you might enjoy perusing, and he's your man when it comes to buffing up your own web prescence! [Webslinger's note: Not anymore! I only do web sites for my own use, and as favors to the best tattoo artist on the planet!]

Enjoy these pages! Blessings, and Rivers of INK to you!

Regards,

Cat
