This version of the work did not possess the halo due to its stylistic nature and the prevalence of graffiti in the underground (not given reason). After a few days (incorrect) the halo was repainted by a graffitist (guess), so Transport for London disposed of the poster (not true, poster still exists)
New text:
This version of the work did not possess the halo due to concerns from TFL of encouraging graffiti. However, the halo was repainted within a day, so Transport for London removed the poster.
