"The Kiss", by Daniel Silk on Jul 31, 2006 22:05:58 GMT 1, I think the George Best spoils it 
The kiss is really nicely done, very clear and it looks like its been really well looked after ;D
Oh, and its a really interesting Pub, the walls are covered in signed posters from loads of well known groups that I guess have visited when they played in Brighton ;D looks like it has not been decorated since the 60's ;D

"The Kiss", by mido on Aug 18, 2006 0:49:33 GMT 1, it's based on a very famnous photo of George best when he was playing for man Utd many years ago. It's a similar photo I reckon to the one used on the seminal 'george best' album by Leeds miserabalists 'The wedding present' (great band, great album!!!)
the GB bit was done before he died... I think....

"The Kiss", by dill on Oct 28, 2006 1:48:19 GMT 1, Very Sad news about the kissing coppers in Brighton i'm affraid. I was walking down trafalgar street tonight pas the Albert pub and saw that some nob head has taken a black spray can and totally and i mean totally obliterated the kissing coppers. all that is left of it is two black feet sticking out of the bottom of a big black spraypainted stain. I was going to take a picture - but it is just too depressing. That was a real landmark in this city. I can't imagine who would do such a thing...a pissed off policeman?? a rabid homophobe??...who knows...he is lucky i didn't catch him....the kissing policemen i fear is gone forever.

"The Kiss", by mido on Oct 28, 2006 16:03:21 GMT 1, oh, that's awful.  
I appreciate that by its nature graffiti comes and goes but to be just obliterated seems stupid (and the pub were happy to have it - it's not like it was on private or public property who didn't like it)

Thanks for posting that Wells  ;D
Its funny aint it ;D being done with Criminal Damage for doing graffiti over graffiti I should think the Police did not really know how to take this one 
I hope Banksy gets down and does another one ;D maybe they could put some sort of protection over it?

"The Kiss", by orangehead on Jul 28, 2007 15:46:24 GMT 1, I just got back from a trip around England and my girlfriend and I made it a must to find the kiss! Here are some photographs we took... but...Its protected by plexiglass now!  I guess to protect it from being buffed again, now that I see what had happened. It made it hard to get a good photo without glare, not to mention I had to clear out all of the dumpsters and trash that was blocking the stencil.
This one was taken by my girlfriend:

"The Kiss", by airsine on Jul 28, 2007 19:37:05 GMT 1, I photographed this before it got trashed and cleaned up the image with a view to making a nice print for my house. I never got around to it, having twins got in the way! I didn't even get around to uploading it to my flickr graf collection, so if anybody wants the high res version, drop me a pm.
Theres lots of other Brighton graf stuff that I've 'modded' with a view to publishing sometime on my Flickr account if you like the cut of the coppers jib.

There's an article on banksy's website about this saying how the guy's who did it were charged and fined and what gave it away was that they droe up to it in a van with their number on it which was then picked up by the cctv cameras.
Don't u just love irony?!
