Was a public school boy who is believed to now be Banksy, but due to the mask, we can’t be sure.
"Banksy" is really Michael Banks, the youngest son of the Banks family in Mary Poppins. After filming was complete, 9-year-old Michael decided to spurn conventional society, he refused to follow his father into the banking industry, and eventually found employment as a cleansing operative with Lambeth Council. It was while jetwashing graffitti-covered walls that he discovered his love for street art.
