This photograph is doing the rounds – rightly so! This particular one was snapped by Kevin Vetters in Nordhausen in Germany. Notice how “Game Girl” is scribbled on the front? John Farrier of Neatorama tips us off that there several game girls have appeared in the city. That’s superb. We don’t know who the artist […]
