Banksy • Flag SILVER, by corblimeylimey on Dec 14, 2006 20:00:32 GMT 1, I really like that image (kids on car) and printed in silver and black, or black on silver paper would be stunning.
I can't make it to London though, it's too far, too expensive, and what if after all this it didn't happen then anyway, I really hope some (maybe at least 300) make it on to POWs web site, or I'm looking at paying higher ebay prices or swapping stuff to that higher value.

Banksy • Flag SILVER, by danvnuk on Dec 14, 2006 21:39:20 GMT 1, hmmmm damn this changes things - IMO Kids on cars is a much stronger, iconic image than the girl with teddy and TV crew, which, don't get me wrong Is a great image - but its just a little bit unsubtle compared to previous Banksy Images.
I wasnt going to bother going down there to queue, but now Im thinking about getting into London early and telling work Ive got a Dentist appointment and trying my luck....
I'm guessing I'll get there and see a queue of biblical proportions - I wont get a Banksy, a News crew will be there, I'll appear on TV, my boss will see it, I'll get the sack before Christmas.
Result = No Print, I'll have queued for hours, and no Job.
I'll see how I feel Sunday night. ;D

No Way - If I don't get my beauty sleep I can't be held responsible for the results.
I'll get up really early after sleeping in what I like to call a "bed" and then commute the 30 mins into London and join the head of the queue like a conquering emperor......collect my print and get in the office at 9:20am Skinny latte in left hand, print tube under right arm muttering something about "The Tubes being messed up this morning"

Banksy • Flag SILVER, by smashedhat on Dec 16, 2006 18:36:09 GMT 1, Just returned from the hell that is SG, there is a small picture of flag. It's not as suggested an empty tube but rather a play on this (http://windsofchange.net/images/9-11_firemans_flag.jpg) set on top of a car as far as I could tell from the distance.
The staff seem to be understandably dreading Monday.

Dont worry Robert, there will be plenty of them for sale on ebay by monday night..... most likely at extortionate prices, there isnt that many more of them than a usual run, so cant see the price being ant lower than usual.

The print is based on this image
A real photo after the battle of Iwo Jima where the Americans suffered huge loses of over 6800 troops, and the Japanese lost over 20,000!
Spot the flag being exactly same

If POW announces this on the website our chances of getting them for a somewhat low price will severly decrease (a lot more punters will be there)

ricosg11 - The Banksy image can easily be interpreted as a play on the American dream as the rift-raft / impoverished kids try to achieve it.

Banksy • Flag SILVER, by perplexedhead on Dec 16, 2006 20:40:57 GMT 1, It's a Santa's Ghetto release. None for the website and all one thousand on Monday.
Do you really think they want to be dealing with the Banksy print madness beyond one insane day?
It's not about a stunt it's about who the fuck wants to deal with that hassle every day for a week.

This evening people were having to queue outside to get in - and that was without anything special going on. I don't think there will be room for more than 50 or so without causing blockage problems for the tube/next door shops.
POW staff deserve a holiday after that
