Found on EBay -- 'Last Supper' Tattoo

This postcard, showing an amazing tattoo of "The Last Supper" has been listed on EBay. According to the vendor, the woman used the stage name of Artoria and was the wife of tattoo artist C.W. "Red" Gibbons. The postcard reads "L.A. Cal.," but there's nothing about either of them in The Times. Here's an item about the city's tattoo shops from 1943. Bidding starts at $9.95.
