More heat on Pest Control and Bankdy, by hnkpnk on Mar 11, 2024 0:10:20 GMT 1, I was shown this article yesterday and appears to be a problem with a Monkey Queen image. Wasn’t there a fair few back door prints from this run? Yes, I think there were quite a lot of back door Monkey Queens. And as they are indistinguishable from the official edition apart from a number and maybe a signature in pencil it must be next to impossible to determine if real or not if it doesn’t have a paper trail. It also predates the blind stamp even if a lot got it as they sold years after the first release.
If it takes PC a long time to come up with a verdict I’m not surprised.

Ai Weiwei Artist's Hand Sculpture, by hnkpnk on Feb 23, 2024 21:18:47 GMT 1, I just sold mine as well. With all the reissues and new versions these will be worthless sooner than later. It’s like he actually gave us all the finger. Whats your sources for there being reissues or new versions? Afaik there’s 1000 silver and smaller editions in different colors of glass. All several years old.

Banksy stuff for sale, by hnkpnk on Feb 14, 2024 23:21:21 GMT 1, hnkpnk They are folded but stored flat for ages So looking good As for provenance that’s not possible as they were given out free in the don’t Panic packs I got mine from carnaby street No one has provenance for these posters I just meant that if they were unfolded it would have been good to know where you got them. I totally agree about the folded ones.

WCP The West Country Prince, by hnkpnk on Feb 2, 2024 18:09:51 GMT 1, I did go for Happy Chopper and Toxic Mary as I've waited long enough and there is no way the prices will ever fall to my affordability. Isn't it enough with one Lroy promoting WCP?

The Collection of Sir Elton John: Opening Night, by hnkpnk on Jan 25, 2024 21:57:23 GMT 1,
It’s in either very good or very bad company.
According to the author most Banksy are replicas, but not all. And all other stuff are real.
Edit: again according to the author.
I don’t know what to think.

The Collection of Sir Elton John: Opening Night, by hnkpnk on Jan 24, 2024 19:49:59 GMT 1, Well you see Minecrafter, Reader is right. Banksy, the big auction houses, it's a different league. And according to the boys here, you and JPS don't belong there. Most of them don't belong there either. I would be surprised if Robin or others involved knew of their existence. But because they got a Banksy piece in the early days and flipflopped it for a nice amount, they feel special. As they were part of some inner circle. Theyve smelled the dollars, and hold tight to that, and want to smell that scent again and again. I have done some research on this forum over the past few weeks and the conclusion can be, they don't want you here. You shall not become one of them. Nor will I for that matter. It does not necessarily mean they are not nice people. They are quite willing to do you a favour, at least if it has something to do with art. But as soon as they feel you want to belong to them, the first row clan, they will close ranks and shut you out. Let it be a reassurance, it is not Banksy who does this, it is the guys who are not Banksy but want to belong to B so badly. Just ask yourself if you would want to be part of that. On this forum over the years literally hundreds of eBay sellers, gallerists etc got called out and it seems completely normal to alert people on here of fraud (fake di-face tenners, people copying Banksy's work without permission etc etc) but if Banksy himself gets called out for flat-out fraud, it's a big No-Go and everyone gets personal. Plus we are supposed to be armed with a million of reasons to call out Banksys fraud. Why is that? What makes it so different? One day we'll make a book out of all this and hopefully identify some of these cats. Also, part of Banksy's Team are main members here, look out for the 2006 accounts. Why don't you contact the victim of this terrible fraud and let them know about all of your findings?
Oh wait, now I remember. There isn't one.

Banksy New Orleans book project, by hnkpnk on Jan 7, 2024 13:09:54 GMT 1, Hi all, I am the caretaker to the Banksy Umbrella Girl (NOLA) in New Orleans and have been for over a decade. I have also been working on a book about the history of all 17 pieces Banksy did in New Orleans in 2008. I have all the standard stories and pictures and then some. What I am looking for is unusual stories and pictures that are not already out there for common consumption. Looking to track down old property owners, and anyone who knows where a few of the missing pieces went off to: -Trumpet Boy #1 which was cut out of wooden house and never resurfaced. -Rat with broom which was cut out of wooden house and never resurfaced. - Turtle with Hard Hat Shell "Slow Progress" (on a door). Stolen. A fake appeared on ebay, and later the original was auctioned at Kezler Gallery in the U. K. around 2013. I am not looking to out anyone, just searching for the full story. Feel free to DM me if you have any info that you think might help. Thanks in advance. Interesting initiative. Good luck.
But as you’re here I would prefer if you would stop tagging original Banksys. As a fan you shouldn’t do this at all and additionally your Banksy ripoffs are detracting more than the other tags and graff.

STOP • Banksy Drone Stop Sign , by hnkpnk on Dec 26, 2023 16:34:20 GMT 1, The only thing holding your husband JPSs career back is himself. He's very good technically and sometimes a bit funny, but that's it. Edit: I would have preferred to keep quiet as I prefer to be positive but as you troll every Banksy thread I didn't. Really glad you didn't stay quiet, but who are you ? What makes you so special ? And yes, I know that his skills and comedy made team Banksy uncomfortable enough to close every door they could. If you read my post as praise you're mistaken.

Banksy · frAGILE · screenprint with CoA goes to auction, by hnkpnk on Dec 15, 2023 18:15:29 GMT 1, Guaranteed one day the buyer will be in McTears. Would have been better investing his money in toilet paper. Banksy is a fraud and it's so funny how many of you bury your heads in the sand on that fact.
And if you have trouble hearing the lyrics, which is quite common on old punk songs, here's a transcript of the important parts:
"Baby baby what you gonna do Baby baby about your self You think you′ve found your Messiah And now you wanna convert everybody else You're such a bore Can′t stand you no more I won't go round to your place anymore
You're a disease babe You′re a disease You′re a disease babe You're faiths a disease I don′t wanna catch"
