New Mr Brainwash, by jeheh on Jan 13, 2018 14:09:20 GMT 1, Martin Luther King - โKeep the dream aliveโ
$450,
Available Monday, January 15th at 12pm PST
Very similar to last years Martin Luther King tribute that had 4 editions and a smaller run each, โWe all have a dreamโ. I guess it was so popular or he ran out of ideas, probably the latter. I own the last one in my office and get lots of compliments on it.
www.mrbrainwash.com/product/keep-the-dream-alive/
In observance of Martin Luther King Jr. Day and the 50th anniversary of his death, Mr. Brainwash is releasing a special edition print. To honor the legacy of Dr. Kingโs work for equality for all through love and non-violence that continue to inspire many.
A one-color screen-print hand-finished with a stencil spray painted on hand torn archival art paper. Each print is signed and numbered, with a thumb print on the back.
Print Size: 46 x 34in
Edition of 50 each
Available in Pink and Blue editions

I donโt even like super hero stuff so it was a bad impulse buy. Id would love to get my cost out of them. The Martin Luther I have I like and itโs framed so itโs too hard to do anything with

Fair enough, the ones Iโd classify as half decent Iโm being pretty generous with. Certainly no โmust havesโ just some, โI wouldnโt mind itโ on par with those that probably wouldnโt make the wall. Only brainwash I have is the soup can style spray can, theyโre pretty cool for $100.

The one off variations go for thousands and sell first. Kudos to him for making himself a name. When you are an art lover it is atrocious. When you want something โurbanโ other people will recognize but youโre not a collector, it works. Thatโs the Lionshare of consumers.
On that note, anyone want to buy my Heroes Justice League print for cost?

That'll be it. The one he's ripped off from a classic DC cover, had an assistant splash some paint on, photocopy and sell for probably double a mint first edition of the original comic. What a c***. But hey, life is beautiful.

New Mr Brainwash, by jeheh on Jan 14, 2018 14:08:06 GMT 1, Consider it the vinyl Louis Vuitton purse equivalent. Mainstream luxury brand price, low quality, classic image, most women want one and have one because it is easily recognizable as luxury. There are a lot of better designers and nicer designs made of better quality materials, but not everyone has or wants a closet of purses.
Also why his forum may not be the best place to try and hock off my brainwash, but at least Iโm offering it at cost. I can already see Iโm going to have to take the post down and put it on eBay.

Nah hold out. Don't be put off by us morons. Personally I don't think the image is that bad, but I'm really not sure about the pricing, I know it's cost and I totally get that you are trying to recover your costs but to be honest even on EBay once you take into account fees etc I Think it might take a while to get a buyer for this one ( not that I'm a MBW secondary expert ).
Maybe hold it for a bit?

I'd suggest a proper sales thread before you do that. Mr Brainwash doesn't appear to get much love on this forum, but there are collectors.
Beyond that don't conflate the response to the original subject matter with your one line offer of a sale of another print. By creating a proper for sale thread you're much more likely to pique interest, than simply tagging it onto your original thread. There's a world of difference between a good for sale thread, and advertising yet another poorly conceived release.

The general tone here is that forum members donโt like his work and how he commercializes it. I wasnโt expecting that my less than subtle reference to the one I have for sale would be met with anything but disdain in a thread where all participants donโt like him. To your point, some members do which is why I shared that he has a new release.

Thanks Johnny. Iโm a consumer not a flipper so I will wait to recover my cost or mark up an eBay offer to account for the service fee. eBay has a broad market of the luxury consumers I was referencing and my offer will be less expensive than the flippers looking to profit. Whatever, it was my impulse buy, I can suck it up. When itโs gone Iโll put it towards another Ben Thomas which is what I should have done to start with.

Iโm quite sure there is still a few on the bay which have been hanging around at near cost since release. I would wait as it doesnโt looks like those ones are moving.
Might be best to tuck it away for a bit until all the ones out there dry up. Some of his more recent stuff just doesnโt looks like heโs given it more than a few seconds thought. I liked some of his early bits.
Somone will take it off you eventually.
