Dollar Bills Defaced With Pop-Culture Icons

This is a giant (30 picture) gallery of U.S. currency that have had pop-icon facelifts courtesy of artist James Charles (who has two first names). They're all incredibly well done and are selling at the Shooting Gallery art gallery in San Francisco for $600-$1,000. But they were already valuable! Granted you could argue James is just defacing money, but I'd argue he's actually refacing it. Refacing it -- God I slay me! Plus dragons. Back me up, Princess. "He used a missile launcher." BA-BOOM!

Hit the jump for 30 others and the link to even more (there's over 50).
