Was that guy Banksy? I thought he never let himself be photographed without a disguise?

My favorite Banksy was outside of Galapagos when it was in Williamsburg. I loved walking by it until Splatter destroyed it.

Now, I'm actually in NYC for Comicon and I find out that Banksy was in Central Park .... I'm so sad now.

I don't think it was Banksy. Most likely just a guy Banksy hired to sell the pieces.

The guy shown is too old to be Banksy, but I wouldn't be that surprised if it were him in makeup ala Johnny Knoxville when he gets made up as Irving Zisman. The "old man" mannerisms were laid on pretty thick.
