Banksy in Old Street


A year and a half ago the Old Street Area of Shoreditch, East London was like taking a trip to the Banksy Museum... housing classic pieces like the Smiley Faced Riot Cops extending across the Bridge over Old St., the huge Pulp Fiction- Samuel L. and John Travolta piece with the bananas, as well as the giant apache helocopter with a pink bow saying "Have a Nice Day". The first two of which have been buffed and the third being over taken by an giant rotating billboard (how bitterly ironic- fucking corporate blood suckers) which you can only see if you stand in front of the Kebab shop it overlooks at just the right angle...
This piece has been there for some time luckily, and I finally got the chance to snap a flic the other day.
