Nola (White Rain) vs. Barcode signed , by quixote on Oct 22, 2016 18:01:38 GMT 1, Hello all,
I have the opportunity to purchase a NOLA white rain, OR a signed Barcode. Both are in mint condition, both have almost the same price, and I LOVE both but of course only have the funds to buy one, thus my torn heart. Any input on which is a better print to keep for the long run? Also whichever one I do not buy I am more than happy to forward you the price and person selling if interested. Thanks for the help.

Both are very good investments

Nola (White Rain) vs. Barcode signed , by Dexter Bulldog on Oct 22, 2016 21:46:14 GMT 1, arent signed barcodes around 35k and white nolas around 25k?
could you squueze a little more funds for an ap nola, those are 35-40?
or did prices go up a lot more than that because banksy took a dump or something ?

Nola (White Rain) vs. Barcode signed , by pippyt75 on Oct 22, 2016 22:23:02 GMT 1, If it is about investment isn't that which is the most iconic long term. Personally I'd say that was barcode, but Nola has a resonance stateside. But they're both lovely and neither is going to lose money so I'd consider yourself very lucky and pick the one you prefer - assuming it's going on the wall! ๐

Nola (White Rain) vs. Barcode signed , by longshanks on Oct 22, 2016 22:37:28 GMT 1, I think they represent different eras. Barcode is classic early banksy, Nola is more tonal - in keeping with more recent works. As mentioned above Nola perhaps resonates stronger stateside.
The barcode will have the older signature, which personally I prefer over the newer.
What a position to be in though. First world problems eh

I didn't realise that - hopefully it's a private acquisition

Nola (White Rain) vs. Barcode signed , by quixote on Oct 23, 2016 2:09:29 GMT 1, Thank you all for the advice and opinions. Posterbob I never said I was a gallery or dealer so I do not know where that came from. And yes I do have an unsigned barcode but would have listed it for sale, and replaced with the signed version. However I have decided to go with the NOLA. If anyone is interested in the signed Barcode please PM and I'll forward you the seller.
