Thanks.

Che Guevara poster - Banksy, by denzil on May 13, 2020 20:11:02 GMT 1, This revolution is for display purposes only (by Banksy)
“On a Tuesday night in the summer I tried to paint a train bridge that spans Portobello Road in West London with posters showing the revolutionary icon Che Guevara gradually dribbling off the page. Every Saturday the market underneath the bridge sells Che Guevara t-shirts, handbags, baby bibs and button badges. I think I was trying to make a statement about the endless recycling of an icon by endlessly recycling an icon. People always seem to think if they dress like a revolutionary they don’t actually have to behave like one.
I got up on the bridge about 4am. It was quiet and peaceful until two cars approached very slowly and parked on the street. I stopped pasting and watched from the side of the bridge through the bushes. After a few minutes there was no movement and I figured it was cool to carry on.
I reached the fifth poster when there was a huge bang and the sound of splitting wood. One of the cars had reversed back up the street and was on the pavement, wedged in the doorway of the mobile phone shop. Six small figures in hoods with scarves over their faces ran into the store throwing everything they could into black plastic bags. In less than a minute they were ali back in their cars which screamed down Portobello Road beneath me. I stood there with my mouth hanging open, a bucket in one hand and a sawn-off sweeping brush in the other, the only young male in sportswear now within a mile of the store. I got the feeling things would look bad for me if I hung around so I dropped the bucket, climbed the fence and jumped to the street.
The area was full of cameras so I lowered my head, pulled my hood up and ran all the way to the canal.
I imagined the kids were probably in Kilburn by then, lighting up a spliff and saying to each other ‘Why would someone just paint pictures of a revolutionary when you can actually behave like one instead?’ ”

But without some type of good evidence to prove it's genuine 🤔 have you tried Pest Control? Slim chance, but worth a shot. Does it have anything on it? Copyright? Banksy?

Ohhh yeah, it's very very likely these are just fake reproductions. I'm surprised WCP hasn't released this one yet 😂 I think it would be popular.

The 'fakes' being sold on eBay in 2020 were not fakes, they just didn't know what they were selling. These are the originals which were given away at Notting Hill Carnival in 2004. If anybody bought one they were very lucky.

Che Guevara poster - Banksy, by shan on Jun 28, 2022 13:17:02 GMT 1, Ir1l I have one post because I am not an artist. Nor an art collector. I am the owner of an extremely rare piece of Banksy print art that happened to fall into my hands at NHC in 2004. I set up this account with the sole purpose of connecting with the art collectors since i know i possess something which would strike the interests of anyone interested in Banksy Art. Unlike those poor souls who had not a clue what a treasure they had and sold on the original prints for pittons on ebay. I happen to know what I have! For anyone interested check out the background of these prints, and the information I've given - it is a genuine original print.

Every time 10 sold he'd put up another 10.
How can you say the guy on ebay was selling real ones

Remember the posters were handed out for FREE the average person would not know. I am happy to share my photos so you can compare! Sounds like you cpuld potentially have your hands on a couple of originals if you can go back to the seller and simply ask them, where did you get this from?

The guy for sure was selling 10 at a time and I'm nearly sure they were £20 each.
