Banksy RAT Print, Gross Domestic Product , by tab1 on May 13, 2020 23:32:04 GMT 1, I received 4 messages regarding a private sale for a "Rat". Seems to be a few out there in the same price range. How to authenticate such an item? [br Just to give you some help: 1. Must have creases and possibly a small tear due to an elastic band (creases may not be there but this will only lead to speculation of being a photocopy) 2. The reverse: must look like a piece of grease proof paper that has been pushed into a rat shaped baking tin. 3. Must come with a parking ticket, McDonald’s receipt or travel card from any of the days they were handed out in Croydon. 4. Must be a trusted forum member(preferably with children as this adds to authenticity) with photos of their fun day out, hopefully holding one of the said posters. 5. Never listen to a forum member with to much time on their hands. Hope this helps.
Did no one park under the arch opposite subways ?

Hopefully this is covered in ‘photos of their fun day out’.

Banksy RAT Print, Gross Domestic Product , by vvk on May 14, 2020 0:25:22 GMT 1, i prefer that the grease marks come from a bucket of kfc chicken from across the street. I trust the colonel more then most others out there. Plus its a wide know fact that the colonel likes rats, just like Banksy. they are partners in crime. except for the fact that Banksy is a vegetarian.

Banksy RAT Print, Gross Domestic Product , by Rock it Dont Stop it on Jun 17, 2020 8:58:17 GMT 1, Hi all. I am searching for a Rat screen print from Croydon/GDP. If possible, I would love to figure out a trade for one, and I should mention that I am based in the USA.
Off the top of my head, I can offer signed prints by: Futura, Obey, FAILE, Timothy Curtis, and I also have a 1st/numbered edition of Banksy Captured if you happen to be looking for that.
PM me if you're interested.
All the best!

Yeah, I was thinking the book to be an add-on to possibly sweeten the deal for someone who was looking for that particular edition. Not just a straight up 1-for-1.

Banksy RAT Print, Gross Domestic Product , by avec art on Jun 18, 2020 15:06:40 GMT 1, The detail and fine spray however are virtually impossible to copy as a screen print. There've been plenty of threads about this around the time. One dot or two what does one dot or two mean? There are slight differences with the rats but both are genuine. You can see black spots under the feet of the rats, some versions have one dot and some versions have two.
After using a screen for a certain amount of time, small holes can become blocked up. So even after cleaning the screen the inks have covered that hole, so the paint at that spot no longer marks the paper underneath.
If this is the case here, then it suggests the two dot rats were produced earlier. Another possibility is that different screens have been used and the dot is expressed on one screen and not the other.

Banksy RAT Print, Gross Domestic Product , by katzk14 on Aug 3, 2020 7:04:24 GMT 1, Hi everyone! Looking for: GDP freebie set (or just the rat) from Croydon
First time on here! I just got approved, so thanks! I used to be a high school art teacher, and always loved the discussions that came after watching Exit Through the Gift Shop...
I would love to get a set of all the handouts given at the GDP, but not sure where to start! I would LOVE the rat with a circle... anyone who worked the show named Katy?
Once I learned about the lottery for GDP it was already closed, so I didn't get my name in the bucket for the clock, and while they say there are more GDP works come (maybe) and BBay (maybe), I would love to get my hands on one of/all the freebies as a set (with a photo or something to prove you were there? I have no intention of selling them, but maybe my kids will want to sell it over my dead body
I still have not seen a Banksy work in person, I would love to pay someone within the community for one of the rats, or all three, just love the idea that these were handed out to kids at the show are being used to spread the art!
Also, aside...if you've read this far... Would love to know who owns (or where it is now..) the Diamond Girl from the MOCA show in LA on the subway door. That's one of my favorite pieces that I've seen (someday I'll get to Amsterdam to see the Forgive our Trespasses!)
Cheers UAA!!

I personally wouldn’t buy anything linen backed, if you plan to sell one day it may not be the best decision.
