A couple days ago when we reported on the tragic near-theft of one of British hype-monster Banksy's early works, we decided to stir up the pot a little by running a picture of some guy who shares the pseudo-recluse's purported Christan name, Robin Banks (we'll give you a minute to let the side-splitting laughter subside). We thought watching people get all riled up over his purported unmasking would be worth a chuckle, but then our UK editor mentioned he had an old shot of the real Banksy so we decided to up the stakes. Here he is, for anyone who actually cares.
FYI.
This story is over 5 years old.
