Banksy mural ripped off wall and up for sale

A Banksy mural has shown up in a US art auction. The mural in question was on the side of a Poundland shop in Wood Green in London. It showed a small boy sewing Union Jack bunting in a sweat shop. It was thought to be a comment on the Diamond Jubilee.

The art was covered with acrylic to protect it, and it became a local tourist attraction. But after scaffolding was erected around the site, the mural disappeared - and showed up online.
