WTB KIDS ON GUNS CANVAS, by steviededalus on Jul 1, 2010 15:12:00 GMT 1, Hey Everyone,
I've got a friend who's looking to buy a kids on guns canvas from the canvas edition of 25.
Serious buyer but for a fair price. (E.g. not 2008 price.)
Please PM me if you're considering selling or if you know of any out there. Needless to say, must come with bombproof provenance / PC or Laz.
Many thanks.

Stevie:
It was a tad more:
Banksy
Title Kids on guns
Description tagged on the right side edge, dated 2003 and numbered 5/25 on the More ...
Medium acrylic and spraypaint stencil on canvas
Year of Work 2003
Size Height 20 in.; Width 20 in. / Height 50.8 cm.; Width 50.8 cm.
Edition 5/25
Misc. Signed
Sale of Sotheby's London: Friday, February 06, 2009 [Lot 00171]
Contemporary Art Day Sale
Estimate 20,000 - 30,000 GBP (29,120 - 43,680 USD)
Sold For 43,250 GBP (62,973 USD) PREMIUM
Personally, I've never understood the premium this piece commands to many of the other editioned to 25 works but to each their own. The market is kind of all over the place at the moment and nothing seems to make much sense to me anyway. I would hope you could find one privately at 35/40 but perhaps that's wishful thinking. The optimist in me thinks even at the gallery level one should be able to grab one at 45 but again what do I know? Sterling has really strengthened vs. just about every other currency so might be worth your time to look offshore as well. Good luck

WTB KIDS ON GUNS CANVAS, by steviededalus on Jul 1, 2010 17:08:17 GMT 1, Thanks, Lee3. Yeah you're right. Was more with premium all in. I agree with you: market really is all over the place at the moment. Difficult to tell but 35k does sound about right to me if bought private; 45k from a gallery.

And highly doubt you will find one privately for ยฃ30k - If you find one for ยฃ40k, I would move ... and quickly.

WTB KIDS ON GUNS CANVAS, by steviededalus on Jul 1, 2010 19:30:18 GMT 1, I dunno. From what I'm hearing 30 - 35k sounds like a good benchmark figure for a private sale. Guess I'll find out soon enough. (Or not.)

WTB KIDS ON GUNS CANVAS, by nacional on Jul 1, 2010 19:36:56 GMT 1, At the moment you can reduce any gallery asking price by about 10-15%. For such large sums of money I would go with a gallery as there are so many fakes...I know a gallery is not watertight but it does make the paper trail sounder. If LAZ still has the one, and you can get it for 45K, I would buy it now....but as an image, I think it does not stand up to, say, Paranoid Pics, which you can get for about 25K. But, galleries will tell you that KIDS is a classic Banksy image and this is why it carries a premium...for me the best Banksy about for sale at moment is a Heavy Weaponry (or is that Weaponary??) with a funky multi-colored background ....or a Rat bronze statue that I love but can't afford...

Couldnt agree more, The heavy Weaponary that recently sold for just over 30k was a classic. Would buy one of those over a kwg anyday! Thats is if i had 30-50k to throw about!

My friend has now said he'd pay 40k, but doesn't want to go above that.
So if you know of anyone who'd sell for that - which, according to the comments here, sounds like a pretty good price to me when you consider gallery premium - then please PM me.
Thanks.
