Anyone for a Banksy Sleeping Bag?, by mltimer on Sept 26, 2006 23:08:47 GMT 1, news.scotsman.com/edinburgh.cfm?id=1417642006
HE is the elusive "guerrilla artist" whose work adorns the homes of Madonna and Hollywood's elite.
Known only as Banksy, few of his numerous celebrity fans or the galleries which display his work know his true identity.
But Edinburgh homeless charity The Rock Trust has pulled off a coup by winning the mysterious graffiti artist's support for their latest fund-raising venture - a sponsored sleep-out.
The artist, who made his name through a series of graffiti designs and acts of "art terrorism", has given permission for one of his best-known designs to be used on advertising posters and "survival bags" used by volunteers taking part in the sleep-out.
Should be on ebay soon.

Anyone for a Banksy Sleeping Bag?, by mido on Sept 27, 2006 0:37:51 GMT 1, I think what is more important is the work the charity does. www.rocktrust.org
And that banksy is supporting it.
From the article it seems they will be using the image - that doesn't make them 'Banksy sleeping bags'.

totally agree. Just a poor attempt at a witty subject line. I'll get my boat.
