Charlie figurine produced by Kevin Francis Ceramics of Stoke-on-Trent, England, in a 2017 limited edition of 100. Charlie Brown Firestarter was originally created by Banksy in February, 2011. It was discovered painted at curb level on the side of a burned out building in Beverly Hills. The artwork depicts the Peanuts cartoon character Charlie Brown surreptitiously emptying gasoline from a red can. He is shown as having a smile on his face while smoking a cigarette. It is implicit in the work that Banksy is alleging that the cartoon character caused the fire that destroyed the building the graffiti was found on.
