Prints in Tubes, by klyde on Feb 3, 2009 12:43:32 GMT 1, Why? Its just a glorified shop. If you dont ask you dont get. Hi Comet, I need to return a TV to you.. What's wrong with it? My brother cut it in half with a samurai sword.. Oh dear, i'm extremely sorry for our incompetence sir, bring it back and we'll swap it for a brand new one
Hardly the same. Its a long sold out edition.
They may have a few kept by for prints damaged in the post.
Its reasonable to think that everyone has inspected their prints for possible postage damage and no more need replaced.
Its not like they can still sell these extra prints on or anything.
I just dont get the "wouldnt have the nerve" comment as if galleries are some how above being questioned.

Nola - grey edition , by klyde on Jan 6, 2009 13:01:00 GMT 1, If grey looks better than white why wasn't the original print grey? p.s. I have a white
Clearly because he intended to do a speical edition.
Remember this was going to be released, costing about ยฃ150 more than the standard edition, but when POW arsed things up, they were offered to the people affected, and as a bonus, at the same price as the standard edition.

Nola - grey edition , by klyde on Jan 6, 2009 12:56:55 GMT 1, Well noted... Anyone who 'claims' to prefer the white to the grey is kidding themselves. Clearly just a case of sour grapes. Better looking, represents the original, low edition size and great story behind it. so i have to explain. white looks better white stands out better and makes the rain symbolic. white just looks better.
Haha! Symbolic!

Nick Walker โข The Empire's State, by klyde on Jan 5, 2009 17:45:55 GMT 1, Me too; I'll be heading down about 7ish as well, by which time they will be all gone. It's a good show though so worth a gander either way I thought this was a good way to release the print if it had been kept quiet but now I'm expecting carnage and have therefore given up any hope of getting one. It's a flippers paradise I have to agree with you there. The selfish side of me is now extremely pished off that all of this info has been released and that preview tickets are on general sale. I thought BRP were deliberately keeping this release fairly low-key to ensure true collectors had a chance to purchase and keep the flippers at (E)bay. I'm gonna be away skiing at the time but managed to convince my non-skiing gf to go on my behalf. Probably best tell her not to bother now - can see this turning fairly ugly tbh. Anyway - good luck to those who, like me, intended to hang this print on their wall and not ebay. And if any cnut tries to flog this on the forum for twice or thrice the price they paid I will personally hunt you down and give you a wedgie.
Do you think flippers are still interested in Walker?
Ratatouille was going for cost or below about 1 week after on ebay, and that was a small edition of 95.

Nola - grey edition , by klyde on Jan 5, 2009 14:58:02 GMT 1, I think grey looks much better than white. Makes more sense to me.
And the small edition size definitely gives off a buzz of all round smugness!
In years to come I would definitely be more happy looking at the grey edition due to this.
Could well be his last for a good while also.

Bast โข Popeye Print, by klyde on Dec 17, 2008 17:35:49 GMT 1, "Two colour screen print, each hand painted on recycled straw paper." i've seen numerous & they've all been unique although some better than others
Like the Mickeys then.
Some had nothing much.
Some had loads of splattered paint.
Some said 5HITHEAD.
Some even had porn glued on.
Just your luck really that you will be happy with it.
Quite alot of cash considering this imo. Best of luck!

POW Tube Dimensions?, by klyde on Dec 17, 2008 13:03:09 GMT 1, I've been trying everything I could H , I've called every damn numbers they have , Only person that was able to give me proper information was the guy working at the airport , he checked on his puter with the UK Tracking , and he gave me the local # , he said the package entered the country on the 2nd of december , but thats all he had on his computer , that the new local number attributed to the package didnt permit tracking. I've been to my post office again yesterday , made them check through all the incoming package registers since the 2nd and nada... I've even been staying at home the past two weeks+ in anticipation of the postman bringing the package , so there is no way I could have missed it either! and when I wasnt here my wife was. Anyway We'll see what happens... So no one has dimensions from a pow tube ?
I frankly cant be bothered to measure one for you.

Banksy "Very Little Helps" Print, by klyde on Dec 16, 2008 13:23:20 GMT 1, i would dearly loved to have won/bought a VLH, so dont get me wrong with my comments - what i dont get however is, since it became a print, it has become an iconic image. I mean this image has been around for nearly 9 months, and really not much discussion has cropped up about it - in polls or when you have the obligatory "Banksy's best image" poll, this featured nowhere on any list. So what qualifies a Banksy piece to become iconic - does it have to become a print to do so?
You have to own it and talk it up as being an iconic image.
Thats basically all that happens on here.
If you dont own it, then you usually find fault with it.
Example, VLH is a small print. The girl in Nola looks weird and so on.
ps - As a "framed" owner of stop and search, imo it is the most iconic Banksy image ever made. Everything else is rubbish. Fact.
