Banksypoly (Occupy movement), by tlaa2020 on Jun 19, 2020 19:28:00 GMT 1, Come across some the "Banksypoly" pieces on ebay (alledgedly from the Occupy movement back in 2011) and I wondered what people's view is on them? Legit?
www.ebay.co.uk/itm/GREEN-BANKSY-Chancer-Card-Banksypoly-2011-Graffiti-Art-Street-Art/274399355450
From description:-
BANKSY Chancer Card - Banksypoly 2011 - Graffiti Art / Street Art - Collectors Item / Ephemera
I had a stall selling my own art at Spitalfields market in London a few years ago and a guy dressed pretty eccentrically came up and dropped a whole load of these on my stall.
He actually came back over the next few weeks and gave me more bundles of them.
He said they were made by Banksy and that they would be worth a fortune one day.
He said they were from the Occupy The London Stock Exchange anti-banking demonstration, London, Britain - 28 Oct 2011 which featured a huge monopoly board painted on the pavement
I have no way of knowing whether this is true, but it seems plausible and these could be .... it's thought that 1000's of these were printed and distributed that day.

Banksypoly (Occupy movement), by tlaa2020 on Jun 24, 2020 14:01:04 GMT 1, yeah i wondered that actually. but then ive found some stuff online saying about how it was vandalised ( www.artlyst.com/news/banksy-occupy-london-sculpture-vandalised/ ).
Also, clearly he's elusive but surely he would come out and deny it, if it wasn't him?

Also there is a banksy tag on the big 'chance card' (but it also says 'zeusopoly' too).
odd / confusing!
nothing on banksys website about it either.
