Banksy Laugh Now Print, by Masong on Oct 9, 2018 11:44:42 GMT 1, The paper on the genuine Laugh Nows was the speckled recycled paper used for many of the early Banksy prints. I don't think WCP uses that, especially as that particular paper ceased to be made many years ago, so you're probably best of finding out what sort of paper WCP uses. many thanks for the reply , it really needs to match the paper used on the WCP prints .. if anybody knows , or something similar . cheers
If you contact wcp Iโm sure heโll let you know. Canโt see why he wouldnโt. Might even sell you a sheet

Banksy Laugh Now Print, by Poppy Sunshine on Dec 5, 2018 12:46:48 GMT 1, Banksy Laugh Now unsigned for sale. ยฃ14k.
Nicely framed by Mr Frameman to conservation standards.
COA in my name.
In the interests of full disclosure I was asked to ship this unframed this week.
Upon getting it out of the frame I noticed very light strips of mat burn about 1cm wide down the vertical edges of the print from its previous life. (pics available)
Obviously not viewable with the current framing and not something that any buyer will have been aware of if keeping it framed but I prefer to be honest about it for peace of mind.
Micallef signed and numbered unframed Peacekeeper. ยฃ400

Banksy Laugh Now Print, by leecd on Dec 27, 2018 18:07:12 GMT 1, <a href="https://ibb.co/cSQJyw"><img src="https://preview.ibb.co/e01rJw/image.jpg" alt="image" border="0"></a>
Hi all!
Iโve decided to sell my unsigned Banksy print, Laugh Now. I purchased it a couple of years ago from a close friend who was the original owner. It has been framed professionally since purchase. Comes with COA from POW. I will be looking for offers around the ยฃ13,000 mark (price adjusted due to advice) . Have some work that may need to happen to my home so it will be a very reluctant sale. Love the image and feel this is a really iconic piece. Iโm located in Bristol and would prefer a face to face deal. Would obviously be willing to unframe to ensure the condition of the edges are good etc if enough interest. If youโre interested please get in touch.
many thanks, Lee

Since posting Iโve been informed ยฃ12-14k is what I could expect from a private sale. Iโm in no rush to sell and want to make sure the customer and myself are happy. Thanks for the advice.

Yeah I reckon that mid point is a more realistic deal for you and a minimum I would deal at. Just because you've initially mentioned the wrong price make sure you don't get screwed over. GLWS it's a great print

13k print, I wouldn't risk it myself. Mess it up and the value you'd lose on the print would outweigh the cost to get it removed. Suppose the way it's been framed and how it's been hinged etc does make all the difference. Can you not leave it in the frame?

Banksy Laugh Now Print, by leecd on Dec 27, 2018 23:32:24 GMT 1, Thanks for the advice. Really useful. Iโm not sure many framers would agree unframe based on the risk of causing any damages and insurance. Itโs something I need to look into more. Iโm not the original owner and although I purchased off a friend who framed it many are asking for the whole print to be checked which I understand.

Banksy Laugh Now Print, by avec art on Dec 27, 2018 23:40:20 GMT 1, The framing looks good anyway. But if someone wanted to inspect the reverse of the print it is possible to just remove the backing.
Removal of French tape, then P i n s or teeth, then backing board and then ideally another piece of acid free paper and below that the print, which will be held in place. From that point you can probably put it back together yourself.

Banksy Laugh Now Print, by concrete jungle on Mar 1, 2019 21:52:04 GMT 1, Shouldnโt be more than 10% less Sadly I wouldn't be so sure. I'd guess the tape on the back isn't such a big deal for most but the mat burn/fade to the front is harder to overlook - there's nothing much you can do to sort that. Had a similar experience with an old style Art Republic (aggghhhh!) framed Banksy Rat - was going to have to take a much bigger hit than 10% in the end so ended up keeping and reframing, matting out the fade. Still looks great on the wall but a bit gutted I didn't pick up the fade on purchase. Others may have a completely different opinion, and some banksy images may be affected more adversely value wise, so wish the OP good luck on a sale. LN is one my fav images tbh

Banksy Laugh Now Print, by avec art on Mar 1, 2019 22:00:06 GMT 1, as brought up by someone else recently in a similar situation, the 'burn' around the edge is not necessarily a reaction to the paper touching the frame, but simply the exposure of the rest of the print to light. Whereas under the frame, that part of the print didn't see sunlight so retains its original colouration.
Which is one reason for choosing float mounting, as at least then everything fades at the same rate.

Banksy Laugh Now Print, by Deleted on Mar 1, 2019 22:19:29 GMT 1, There is no doubt that this will reduce the number of potential buyers as there are plenty on here who wouldnt buy a print if someone has farted in the vicinity of it. That said there are plenty folks like me who wouldnt hesitate to purchase, i bought a LN on ebay with tape marks on the back and im sure i got it at a good price because of the tape marks, the front is pristine and ive never seen the back since the day it went for framing ๐
I also picked up a brilliant Faile Dog after the initial buyer pulled out after he inspected it, a few marks on the rear again, quite ironic as the front is full of pencil marks and scribbles.
A buyer will appear at a fair price to both parties.
