Tattoo Talk



My Frank Sinatra tattoo now (5 years later :)




My 'Gaby the Radio Bee' tattoo :)


"In 1943 James McClatchy's granddaughter, Eleanor, then president of The Bee, asked Walt Disney to create some new images of the insect to "lend personality and a familiar identity" to the papers and the company's radio stations.


Disney, who donated his $1,500 fee to the Army Relief Fund, came up with "Scoopy" for the papers and "Gaby" for the radio stations.


The new logos were announced with great front-page fanfare in The Bee on Sept. 4, 1943. That evening, a 15-minute radio interview with Disney from Hollywood was broadcast on KFBK."



My friend Miriam in Australia who got my Midikat logo for my thrift store as a tattoo!! :D Thanks, Miriam! <3



Listener Beth made us a, "Paaaat" toe tattoo tonight! Thanks, Beth! :)
