Although, That being said, maybe he is utilizing this piece of information and has then incorporated it into the painting on purpose....?
He is a sneaky fucker after all.

Sabeth?

you can also make out the writing to go on there, it says, "theres no such thing as good publicity"

[stillborncrisps]

You could sit for a week and struggle to come up with a line as good as that.

Putting it down as a personal fave to equal "In the future everyone will be anonymous for 15 minutes".

id say that is pretty good publicity

Does no 1 else see this...IT says:

"No Such Thing as Good Publicity " covered up by RAT!!!!

i really think the date is a coincidental leftover from the previous billboard. but who knows.

Interesting article here about the whole Banksy NYC Billboard stuff.

www.publicadcampaign.com/2008/10/banksy-colossal-media-hit_09.html

Banksy's team passed on this quote to us, regarding the billboards: "I wanted to play the corporations at their own game, at the same scale and in the same locations. The advantage of billboard companies is that they’ll let you write anything for money, even if what you write is questioning the ethics of letting someone write anything because they have money."
