Banksy or not Banksy, that is the question?, by Strange Al on Sept 10, 2007 12:33:57 GMT 1, Anyone else spot this piece which popped up on Old Street over the last couple of days? It's in the same location as Pulp Fiction used to be. Question is - has Mr B been busy again or is this piece by someone else? Either way, a very nice addition:

If it was you banksy, and you are reeading this, please pretend it wasn't you and release it under another name!
Thanks

Banksy or not Banksy, that is the question?, by buddings on Sept 10, 2007 14:09:21 GMT 1, if you look at the lines in the last picture, you can clearly see its stencilled. also if you compare the cutting technique of these lines to the recent "girl being frisked" in glastonbury. i believe it becomes obvious who did this, mr B.
also, in the last few street pieces it does appear that he has been experimenting with shading in his stencils.
