I too thought 'TBP.' Glad you said it actually as when I mentioned it up thread I thought I might be seeing things
I did also. I spent quite a while chasing TBP meanings, connections.
ETA: I learned that only Japanese Tat artists will sign their work (nowadays), and that it is usually frowned upon. I learned that there is a TBP tat shop in Germany. And I learned the TBP could stand for tattoo body piercing, total body painting (which was a big thing in the late 1990s) or Tau Beta Phi, but not necessarily Tattoo by Peter (or Paul).
Yes, covering old initials makes the most sense to me. I made my husband cover his ex's name on his forearm, he now has a huge dragon instead.
I would imagine that a peach tattoo was relatively inexpensive, because its small, and it seems like an old school design.
