One of Banksy's most famous pieces of art is set to make up to £50,000 today as it goes under the hammer at a Newcastle auction house.
The 'Love Rat' is a screenprint of a piece of graffiti which was originally created by the artist in Liverpool, in 2004.
Auction house Anderson and Garland expect the piece to sell for between £30,000 and £50,000 during the auction today.
