Best of luck with the search, I haven't heard of any of these coming up for sale.

It's my understanding there are a number of special editions with hand painted dots - I believe this is another link to Keith Haring - although not sure what.

LTB: Banksy Choose Your Weapon (White Hand Finished), by Wearology on Mar 2, 2013 22:37:57 GMT 1, The 3 dots are indeed a nod to Keith Haring. One of Keith's most iconic figures had 3 eyes and the cover of Keith's most famous book had the 3 eyed face on the cover.

LTB: Banksy Choose Your Weapon (White Hand Finished), by Wearology on Mar 2, 2013 23:01:16 GMT 1, I hope this is helpful explaining the 3 dot reference in Banksy's CYW special edition and how it applies to Keith Haring
Symbolic Self-portrait Unit Overview (Part 2)
Keith Haring always wanted to bring his art to the people. In the early 1980s he did his first subway drawings. Most of the images he was to use later were invented hereโthe dancing figures, the flying saucers, the lines radiating from the figures. Soon, people started coming to his loft to buy his drawings, and Keith Haringโs career had begun.
In his drawings and early paintings, Haring invented a whole vocabulary of graphic signs and symbols. He repeated the same images over and over. Each object stood for a quality or an abstract idea. Lines radiating from figures mean the figure has been empowered. The โradiantโ baby a symbol of threatened childhood, has the power to protect itself. Dolphins are symbols of peace and love; pyramids symbolize eternity; holes in figures symbolize their soul; three eyes in a smiling face stand for greed or joy and computers, robots and TVs symbolize technology.
Though the symbols he used seem simple, Keith Haringโs art deals with universal themesโlove, war, birth and death. Although his art was always optimistic, many of his messages became more serious at the end of his life.
