This morning @blheuser and I ran into this guy named Steve. Steve pretty much made my day. He sells antique slot machines and parts for them. He is 81 years old and got the the motorcycle racer tattoo 68 years ago when he was 13 in the arcade on State Street by Tatts Thomas. I don’t have nor have I ever done a tattoo as tough as these. Steve wins!!!! #greatlakestattoo #tattsthomas #southstatestreet #buytheticketridetheride #tattoohistory #chicagohistory (at Chicago History Museum) https://www.instagram.com/p/BvsXG1ogFaD/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1qx7vyee2a2b5
