Kaplan Tattoo Machine Prototype. You won’t find this one everyday. Vintage, 1964 Prototype Tattoo Machine built by the late great “Big Joe Kaplan” (RIP my old friend.) out of New York USA. Machine has very little use it’s been in one of my display cases for 35 years. Runs Fantastic as it should. I have the tube vise screw and it’s included. A piece of tattoo history for real. I reserve the right to end auction early as it’s for sale in person. * I’m retiring after being in the tattoo business for 41 years. I’ve been round the world and seen many things due to the awesome tattoo industry I have no regrets! I don’t fool with Asian or otherwise Junk, Cheap-ass, BS, wannabe tattoo machines. I will be listing 50-70 nice vintage tattoo machines maybe more! I have approximately 120 machines total and not one piece of cheap Chinese crap. So be on lookout! Thank you all. “What a long strange trip it’s been! Peace…
