BANKSY GO BYE-BYE

************BANKSY GRAFITI WORK PULLED FROM US SALE************
WORK DISAPPEARED FROM A LONDON WALL EARLIER THIS MONTH



New graffiti work that reads "Danger Thieves" is placed next to a section of a wall
where celebrated street artist Banksy's "Slave Labour" graffiti artwork was removed
in north London on February 23, 2013.
The work that showed a young boy using a sewing machine to make the British flag
has been carefully removed and will be auctioned in Miami where
it's expected to fetch around 328,000 GBP (500,000 USD).
Residents of the North London area have reacted angrily to the removal of the work,
but the auction house says the piece was acquired legally. AFP PHOTO / JUSTIN TALLIS.
