is your banksy DONUTS signature faded/light?, by Deleted on May 1, 2014 20:15:52 GMT 1, I think it will affect the price to some degree unfortunately but should'nt really, it has the coa and its obvious it hasnt been faded by light because the numbering is nice and strong, theres bound to be some anomolies when signing 299 pink and 299 choccy sigs, pretty tiresome, makes me think of doing lines in school, could be that was the last one he signed before sharpening his pencil again :/ Anomolies annomolies anommolies anomollies bloody phone tells you youre spelling it wrong, it would help if it said how to spell it right uhhh AnomAlies.
haha, thanks

is your banksy DONUTS signature faded/light?, by Deleted on May 1, 2014 20:20:09 GMT 1, haha, thanks You really think so? It is sort of a unique situation in that it's not like a damaged painting that can be restored; I wonder if there has been a past instance with a famous artist (other than the Hirst thing mentioned).

is your banksy DONUTS signature faded/light?, by Deleted on May 2, 2014 17:51:43 GMT 1, That looks pretty bad.
I have a 1950 print that Picasso signed in orange crayon and it still looks good, so crayon can last a very long time. I would take that frame to a good frame shop and confirm that it is UV glass. It may have faded in the light if the wrong glass was used. It happens...
I would also contact Pest Control and see if you can mail it off for a replacement signature. And hey, he may still be in London
Good luck.

As someone else mentioned. Shoot a email over to the pest control guys. You never know, they might ask to see it and get it freshly done for you

is your banksy DONUTS signature faded/light?, by Unica on May 3, 2014 15:11:13 GMT 1, If your going to spend that kind of money, I think you should either get a massive discount or personally I would stay clear. Its going to be your problem if you ever come to sell it. Your going to have buyers thinking the same thought you are. Best to get one with no issues, much easier to sell if you ever had to, not saying you would but you never know.

Its going to be your problem if you ever come to sell it. Your going to have buyers thinking the same thought you are. Best to get one with no issues, much easier to sell if you ever had to, not saying you would but you never know. of course, the purchase is made because of the love, not to sell. but anything can happen at any time, and people find themselves in situations they never wish they would end up and its good to know should that ever happen, youre able to get value.
at the moment it just doesnt seem there are many for sale, and people are asking a hefty price if they do come for sale these days. it is probably better to pass, but i just love the image, i want to look at it, (i want to eat it) but the obsessive part of me will look at the signature every day like the picture of michael j fox in back to the future slowly disappearing from existence. tough call, maybe ill hear something good from pc, but not holding my breath as i am sure theyre swamped.

is your banksy DONUTS signature faded/light?, by andyroo0312 on Mar 21, 2018 15:52:27 GMT 1, I saw this thread late and i own both colour ways of the Donut and both signatures are as bold and bright as since the day i got them which is 8yrs ago give or take. I think it is something worth following up with PC. All the Donuts came with PC so i am guessing you have that. Maybe yours has a number that is near the end of 299 if so they the signers would of been smashed and maybe used one of those invisible crayolo,s to sign with for a joke. you may find that the invisible sig Donuts go for 3x the normal Donuts??? Hope you get a result..

is your banksy DONUTS signature faded/light?, by saint on Mar 21, 2018 16:39:42 GMT 1, I actually think the sig on mine has got slightly more faded over the years, but its not bad, and is still legible. Mine is framed using UV protective glass, and was always hung away from the light. I was thinking about it the other night while enjoying a hot toddy, and remembered there being a thread on this subject.
Did anyone ever actually go to PC to find out what could be done? Probably be a lot harder now without POW being around....

Consider your print now Unsigned

Something to do with the ink and the lambda paper stock. I remember that. Signatures absolutely vanishing.
