Pulp Fiction (Banksy)

Pulp Fiction is the name given to a number of works by stencil graffiti artist Banksy. They depict the characters played by Samuel L. Jackson and John Travolta in the 1994 film Pulp Fiction, with their guns replaced by bananas.[1] A stencil graffiti work existed on a wall near the Old Street tube station in the City of London from 2002 to 2007.[2] Prints of the image on its original site have been sold for £1,000.[3] A print of the Pulp Fiction stencil was sold for £10,600 in 2012.[4]
