The Connor Brothers ๐ฌ๐ง Mike Snelle & James Golding, by nipper on Jul 29, 2020 23:13:12 GMT 1, Does any of the money go to the actual artists whose work was appropriated? I'll wait until they're approaching their expiry date and are about ยฃ3/can.
I havenโt checked in this but do you know that it was?
If so, maybe not buy it.
Iโll duck back out.

It's a wise tactic to get around the unsanctioned and uncompensated use of intellectual property and failings of their previous business. Social media is a cesspool as we all know, but a horde of fans will harass you on Instagram, question your virtue, and ask what your contribution to charity is should you dare question The Connor Brothers practices and previous dealings.
I would encourage anyone to compare their tactic to fraudsters on Ebay should anyone question my point. How many times have you seen fake and backdoor prints for sale that gave a percentage to charity in a failed attempt at integrity? Supporting charities has diverted attention away from the activities of certain people in the past, including Jimmy Saville.

I genuinely think itโs all really nice pub art. I do think itโs interesting that more people seem to be offended by the connor brothers, but accept huge values in millers works. Itโs possibly a reflection of peopleโs collections or my lack of connoisseurship. Or both. Or something else. Either way they are all shit so its funny (unless you have a pub and they will fit right in and you can have yourself a highly appreciating asset).
