Professor Jack's Patriotic Gallery
Inspired by the book Tattoo by Albert Parry © 1930. I found the book at the Olympia Goodwill. Excerpt featuring Professor Jack:
"It is useless to make a trip to New York's South Street. There the tattooing pursuit is as dead as the two other ancient trades of that street: the making and selling of sails, and the carving of ships' figureheads. Professor Jack was the last permanent artist in this section; no one knows where he is now." (p. 54)

The Birth Of The KGB
Originally inspired by the book KGB and the artwork of the late Russian outsider artist Alexander Lobanov. (In particular, the wreath and guns imagery)
However, the one with the AK-47's is too large to fit in the scanner.
