The well-known streetart photographer Luna Park just called our attention to this new piece. Location is unknown, but it looks like an authentic Banksy to us- the shading, subject, and hand-drawn box are all similar to other pieces he's recently put up.
Update: looks like the location of this piece in Long Island City was sussed out pretty quickly last night- Omar immediately arrived and destroyed it.
