    From the collection of Tristan Manco co-founder of former "Tijuana Design" in Bristol (with Tony Stiles).
    Manco worked personally with Banksy on various projects. Among those record an cd designs for Brit pop band BLUR.´s Think Tank" and subsequent singles to mention a few. Sold to us by Tony Stiles.

    An early working sketch made by Banksy & Tristan Manco together with with his written comments for the cover of Think Tank. Manco suggests to Banksy that the couple at the table are wearing balaclavas, but as we know, it ends up with the couple wearing diving helmets.

    Later in 2018, a cartoonist from Glasgow accuses Banksy of having borrowed her idea for the divers in love. We have a photo that refutes this. See the last photo where in 2003 Banksy has hung source material on the wall (mid left) that looks like a still frame from an American 50's B film.

    Please observe the bottom hand made note "Robin questions Singapore Book - BMG (Bad Meaning Good).
    This is Tristan Manco making the note. Once and for all we have established that the real first name of the artist is Robin.
