I got my first tattoo from Thom DeVita in NYC a week before my
19th birthday in 1977. I have been getting inked regularly since
then. About a year ago I decided to start a theme on my legs of
the neighborhood where I grew up- Coney Island, Brooklyn NY.

I got these all in the last few months from my good friend Vinny
Jackson, AKA “Coney Island Vinny” I have 3 dozen pieces from
him in the last 18 years ….

The Parachute Jump- I was on this ride as a kid the very last time it operated…

A Steeplechase Park ticlet from the 1940’s …

The Cyclone, the most terrifying Roller Coaster on earth …..
