black heart tattoo

Eddy Deutsche's 222 Tattoo SF...

It's long gone now but it is and will always be one of my all time favorite tattoo shops. I'm glad I got to see it in person several times before it closed. My visits there still provide me with so much inspiration. Real ground breaking work. I wish some of the younger generations could have experienced it first hand. It really was perfect. Most of the original crew went on to later open BLACK HEART TATTOO also in S.F.  Another one of my top favorites in the world.
