My name is Devil Doll. Yeah, I know, 1,000 other girls use the same name; however, I've been called Devil Doll for almost 40 years, so I have all of them beat (including that chick with the band in L.A., don't get me started on that wench). I'm a singer in a punk-rockabilly band, The Tantrums. I am a deltiologist: I buy and sell vintage postcards and ephemera. I take photos: roadside America, dogs and horses, neon signs, old cars, old architecture, things in my house, the dark, decay, desolation, depopulated areas and anything else that strikes my fancy. Because if my fancy is not struck, it's probably not worth my time. I don't really like to photograph people, with the exception of my friends and burlesque performers (some of whom are my friends).
If your photostream includes lots of photos of your cooch, I do not want to see it; I will block you. And if you just like leering at photos of women, don't add me as a contact. If your photostream doesn't have any photos, please don't add me. If you do, I will block you.
My photographs are for sale if you want to buy one. Do not steal them. If you want to link my photos and images for blogs, websites, etc., If would be polite if you would ASK FIRST. Otherwise, go spend YOUR OWN money, time and effort to find and photograph what I have pictured in my photostream. Thank you.

Ms DD was one of my first Flickr contacts and her photostream allows me to get lost in the 40s & 50s for hours on end. Her west coast signage shots let me explore areas I will probably never get to.

TRDD has a photostream that's rapidly became one of my faves in all of Flickrdom. She's like a long lost sister I knew nothing about, since her love for neon and old signs is as driving as mine. Great shots, nice person, and a great singer too. Not much more needed there. :-) Now that I've met her personally, I kn… Read more
