A man who bought a Banksy artwork and arranged its removal from a city said he has been sent hate mail branding him an art thief .
Nottingham s hula-hooping girl mural first appeared on the side of a salon on Rothesay Avenue in October.
It was bought by gallery owner John Brandler for a six-figure sum and cut from the wall on Wednesday morning.
Residents expressed disappointment at the move, and Mr Brandler said he has since been sent vitriolic e-mails .

An art dealer has purchased a recent Banksy mural of a girl playing hula hoop with a bicycle tire from property owners in Lenton, Nottingham, as the market for the anonymous street artist’s work continues to climb.
Banksy painted the mural on October 13 of last year, chaining a bent bike with a missing back wheel next to it in an apparent reference the Raleigh Bicycle Company, which has called Nottingham home since it was founded in 1887. The artist claimed the work as his own several days later in an Instagram post.
Dealer John Brandler, of Brandler Galleries in Essex, paid six figures for the piece, which had been placed under a protective plastic cover, which the gallerist feared might damage it.
