wanna see my "reagan? just say no!" tattoo?

harley davidson used to brag
that they were the only manufacturer
whose customers tattooed their logo on themselves

this is of course no longer the case
the nike swoosh is not uncommon

and in 2003 a guy named jim nelson
offered up the back of his head
as lasting advertising real estate

he sold the space to webhost ci host
for $7000

another american woman, kerra fowler
in the months preceding the 2004 u.s federal election
offered up the same space on her body on ebay
to host an anti-bush message

her starting price was one cent
it eventually sold for $103.50

there is an interview with the woman herself
and the successful bidder here.
