Flower Thrower, by ethan675 on Mar 31, 2016 17:11:46 GMT 1, Hi All,
I'm new here so I hope I'm doing the right thing
I bought this artwork for Banksy a few days ago (haven't received it yet but it's just a matter of days. It will come with a CoA from the dealer (27 years in business) but I want some expertise from the people here. There's a graffiti tag on the front and the bag, does this look genuine to you? (I know it's a reverse flower thrower but I know he made that as well..)
Thank you all for your answers.

Flower Thrower, by ethan675 on Mar 31, 2016 18:05:48 GMT 1, I'll double check it with Pest Control, if it's fake he'll get it back and I will have my money so it's not such a big problem. Just a shame
Is this www.pestcontroloffice.com/AuthForm_Prints.asp the only way to contact them or is there a contact person who I can mail to?
Thx guys, much appreciated!

I see the dealer has a whole series on the same paper, different images. I think it unlikely that Banksy would have produced such a series and no one on here had ever heard of it, I'm afraid.

Contact Pest if you'd like just so you have peace of mind - but that/those are fake.

It's not from ebay but it's actually a quite famous art gallery in the netherlands so I guess he has no idea as well.... hope so!
Dealer says that he bought all the workshop in Bristol in 2008, before "Pest Control" was even there

But I know I get my money back cause if that was not the case I would not be here but in front of that dealer right now. It's still mindblowing that a gallery with 27 years experience would do that. So I guess all his Banksy art works are fake

Who is the dealer ? (may have missed it but worth saying again)
