Banksy Laugh Now Print, by Unica on Oct 20, 2014 18:34:50 GMT 1, Laugh Now is getting very difficult to find, I was looking for one of these unsigned for a while and a U/S LIITA, took me a while to find a mint one and was £5k. One of Banksys most popular iconic images.

Banksy Laugh Now Print, by Deleted on Oct 24, 2014 21:47:09 GMT 1, I was winner of this on ebay 2 weeks back and "damage" at corners is probably bit too strong a word, slight discolouration / tape mark (?) but nothing of note otherwise impeccable.

Banksy Laugh Now Print, by tomh on Nov 12, 2014 8:44:31 GMT 1, Just back from the (re) framers....
I got this print about 10 years ago on the mighty fleabay. No provenance or COAs or whatnot, not even sure if they existed back then. Anyway it's been on my wall ever since, in a fairly cheap looking frame.
Finally I got around to getting it authenticated, and received the PC certificate a couple of weeks back.
So decided, now that it's a bona fide Banksy I better treat it to a decent frame
Quite pleased with the result!

Banksy Laugh Now Print, by sommguy on Nov 26, 2014 10:07:26 GMT 1, the NYC pieces were on smaller canvas, and filled the canvas more. this looks like an odd run, or a Fake. no date on signature.... its definitely new work. but the stencil looks too clean. no spray effect, or any evidence of the lifting of the stencils while spraying.... its almost too clean...
but the signature looks legit, if written with an acrylic pen/paint stick... but no date...
For that much money, you have to be sure...

Banksy Laugh Now Print, by hnkpnk on Nov 26, 2014 10:50:14 GMT 1, Afaik he doesn't use that sig for canvas. And the sig should be on the frame (on the back or side) and not on the back of the canvas itself. Check the Central Park sale and you can see it's not this sig used there at least.
But I'm no expert and this may be ok, but it doesn't feel right to me.

Banksy Laugh Now Print, by otomi on Nov 26, 2014 11:43:33 GMT 1, I think specially "high-rollers" are likely to buy a fake. If Banksy made new editions of the canvas you can buy it cheaper than 200k from galleries. Generally for 200k you can buy something much better. The images don't show the whole canvas which is usually not a good sign. I would not touch it without a PC COA.

Banksy Laugh Now Print, by twist65 on Nov 26, 2014 15:35:43 GMT 1, I think its totally fair enough for people to comment whether they think its legit or not, since there's no mention of PC and it's quite different to other known laugh now originals for the reasons others have mentioned.
people comment all the time with ebay listings so why not with this? might well be genuine but the opinion of knowledgable forumites should be welcomed.
I am no expert but I do know that there have been some fairly recent Laugh Nows, to my eyes if this one is genuine then its begs the question why is there no coa? You'd get one if bought from source and would have to be seriously "not art savvy" to spend that sort of $ on the secondary without one, and anyone who already owns a few original Banksy canvases and other nice originals should be well aware this.

Banksy Laugh Now Print, by otomi on Nov 26, 2014 15:39:54 GMT 1, • you guys are funny. • I trust Andy, and the poster. • Im sure the ones who can afford it/want it arent writing on here with their unprofessional opinion and have already contacted him. Black Apple has. I posted this to give a forum member who might want one an opportunity, and did not post this for a bunch of people to hijack the thread and authenticate the piece themselves. Sounds good. Sorry for the hijack.
Could someone please immediately wire that guy 200k and please don't ask any questions, he is a friend of a friend and people on here don't know anything about Banksy. It's on Twitter so you know it's legit.

Again if this was legit and it's a later canvas he would know the value and not be trying to punt it instergram.
Seems shady to me.....
