this one has been around for a long time, but i haven’t had the chance to snap it until today.
what happened phil? i don’t get the ply stuck onto the painting, was that you or was someone offended by what is underneath it>? shame i didn’t get the chance to shoot it before it got trashed.

Okay then, will the real Phil James please stand up, please stand up?
For those of you who are regulars here, you would have already seen this post. Here is another piece found in Paddington.
Whoever this guy is, he really likes to see a mashed-up Princess Diana as you can see here, posted by a Kate Bedwell (nice name BTW, do you?).
Dumbo Feather has also mentioned him here, as has Darlinghurst Nights.
Someone called Reemski has posted this on her Flickr account as well.
I really hope this is not some clever viral marketing campaign that has us hoodwinked and that rather, it is a homegrown Banksy-type thing.
If it IS a marketing thing, I vow to take down all posts regarding this and replace them with something else i shot that day. You know I DO take more than one photo a day.
If anyone finds more of this guys work, please put your links into my comments.
PS. – Haberdashery – what an excellent word.

Is it art, or advertising? hmmm. Looks like someone ripped another one off, just to the left of this one.
