This reminds me of the time Banksy had someone sell original signed canvases on a NYC sidewalk for $60, and sold a total of 8 in one day (two were sold for 50% off).

I have friends in the art world and they pointed out that actually could be a fair price, because without a document of provenance and authenticity the art isn’t worth anything to a collector.
