Not sure a bit of cropping would knock vast amounts off the price in any event though?

Have no idea why but Bonham's seems to list and measure these prints in millimeters which is above the usual tolerance when cutting, so some are one or two mm more or less. This one upcoming is a whole 1mm shorter.

Always worth checking dimensions though, some find it easier (and probably quicker) to slice the damage off than give it the Bignell treatment.

It's an AP DN because there is another one out there with the same number.
The early prints were all different sizes, my GWB is the same size as this one. The COA's all state 50x70 though.
There's a screenshot here from the pow website: www.banksy-prints.com/print/girl-with-balloon/

This is art and worth noting that I'd be a very happy man if my investments did half that. Come to think of it, I'd be delighted if my investments simply stopped bleeding.

Plus, the frequency of public sales of these prints is so low you that you can't determine truly if they're statistically different. Either way, my point is that gallery asking prices of ยฃ85k are truly ridiculous.

Given that GWB seems to be the flavor of the month right now for this artist, 85 asks do not surprise me. Likewise, I would expect a gallery with retail space that was truly interested in selling, prospective buyers would see the 85 wither away in short order. Maybe not to 55 but close. If it doesn't, then they obviously aren't interested in selling it and just use it for enticement and conversation which shouldn't be unexpected either given the interest. I guess we just look at it differently which is no bother.
