This is the door at Magma book shop in Clerkenwell - plastered in stickers so if you're in town....

Again something that really should have been posted on artofthestate earlier - awry stencil graffit found on some marathon jaunt around East London.

More work from Arofish in Cold Blow Lane. The last time I went the tunnel was closed so I don't know if anything still survives.

Well last week I spent time taking pictures of things other than street art (more soon) so this week I'm raiding the archives and posting up stuff that for no good reason has never made it onto artofthestate.

First up are a couple of Arofish pieces from Cold Blow Lane in New Cross.

As previously reported here back in October 2006 thieves made off Banksy's No Ball Games rat in Paddington having hacked it out of the wall. So it's funny how in the last week its been picked up as a story and run by the BBC, NY Times amongst others. Keep up guys!

Maybe because it suspiciously turned up on Ebay for 20K? Ebay is fast becoming the lazy journalists story of choice (can't be bothered to go to Devon to report on container ship looting? Just log on to Ebay to see what the scavengers are selling and make that the story. All from the comfort of your own office)!

Imagine the stories they'll be able to run when they finally notice Elvis died? 

I did my bit for the environment last year by not jetting off to LA to look at a painted elephant in a room. It is, of course, something I've regretted ever since. Luckily Moffla has come up with a great set of Banksy Barely Legal photos which he has allowed me to reproduce on artofthestate. To see them all start here or you can just browse galleies one and two. 

Following on from yesterday's post here's a stencil found in a side road off Brick Lane. At the moment there seems to be a lot of buffing going on and not so much new stuff going up. I'm always after any tip offs of good stuff so if you see anything feel free to email artofthestate.

It's a full scale onslaught from Invader then, a couple more found in Southwark in Park Street and by Vinopolis.

Good job too as there's not a great deal else going up in London at the moment....

There's a few of these figures in various guises around new office developments in London. This one was found in More London near Tower Bridge. I liked the way it's getting progressively more dirty over time which only adds to its character:

Lazinc is running a new exhibition 'U.S. vs them' by Ben Turnbull. It contains 15 sculptures which largely consist of childs toys reworked to provide a comment on America's image. Or the largest Rubik's cube you've ever seen and a coffin made out of Action Man parts sitting behind an electric fence if you prefer. Some proper pictures at a later date....
