i posted this two weeks ago and then made it private soon after, but since ali linked to it in her ridiculously awesome, super flattering tribute, i just had to bump it as to whore it out a wee bit more... ;)

well the basics are Robbo painted a peice on the Regents canal in London , it remained untouched for roughly 22 yrs ?? this in itself is unheard of it was left that way out of respect , but Banksy took it upon himself to take half the piece down with a pathetic stencil of a workman wallpapering the wall ? so after 20 yrs of retirement Robbo made a come back and Banksy has made an enemy of virtually every genuine graffiti artist , worldwide now as soon as a Banksy goes up Team Robbo take it down , it caused a major divide but Banksy cant go any further now his lost any respect he had lesson over haha (well thats my opinion ) Banksy is despised over here America is more than welcome to him :)

"Banksy is despised over here America is more than welcome to him."
That's what we do here. It even says so on the Statue of Liberty:
"Give me your tired, your poor,
Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,
The wretched refuse of your teeming shore,
Send these, the Beckhams', the Banksies', tempest-tost to me,
I lift my lamp beside the golden door!

Nice shot. I have the same book.
I don't think this photo would be that interesting if it wasn't for your eyes.
