Secret Artists

Is it a Banksy? I doubt it, because he isn't an old boy of the Royal College of Art. It's one of those anonymous original postcards which the RCA puts up for its annual sale. Collectors lash out £45 to buy one, then find the artist's name on the back. If they're lucky, it's worth more than they paid for it. If not, hard cheese. All the money raised goes to the RCA Student Award Fund. The exhibition of cards for sale opens on 12 November. The sale is on Saturday 20 November, from 8am to 6pm, personal purchases only, first come first served. Serious punters camp overnight to keep a front place in the queue.
