New Banksy?, by twist65 on Apr 15, 2014 12:10:29 GMT 1, yep ditto the above. Have to say i'm really enjoying this, reminds me of the good old days with forum members tearing round Blighty to get to a new piece first! Nice to watch it all unfold.. Love the placement and "classic Banksy"-ness of the phone tappers piece but the selfie couple just steals it for me, beautifully executed. Both different but both clear reminders of why he's head and shoulders above the competition.. =]

New Banksy?, by twist65 on Apr 15, 2014 12:12:53 GMT 1, What about the fact that this is painted on a piece of wood that is clearly screwed to a wall. If you zoom in you can see the screws. Banksy would not paint this on the street, would he? maybe it was painted somewhere else and just screwed on? quicker job if its a dodgy location... love the film set conspiracy too though!

New Banksy?, by rioja on Apr 15, 2014 12:51:35 GMT 1, Here's a lightened version of the close-up. It looks like plywood. There's a knot repair oval top right. I reckon the original images were possibly darkened slightly as there's so much detail here. An old disused industrial area somewhere (the plant is a buddleia that loves wasteland) and the cobbles and cast iron curbs in the other image suggest docks??

I still remember everyone searching for a "Blue" door in BK that in reality was grey...

1. No Docks there. 2. Not a single meat pie in the stencil.

It's great to have a forum member who has in the past been so willing to give us a heads up on the latest & greatest Mr. B has to offer. Please do not allow a few bad Monsanto Apples on here turn you off to this place again.
Hope you stick around fragile.

I stand corrected!
Great that it has been found though, and great it is in Bristol too.

maybe thats a good thing.
