Banksy Soup Can (Coloured) Print, by rootona on Sept 7, 2013 0:39:07 GMT 1, Can't believe people are not all over these like they are with Nola and CYW. They're all great colourways, neat sizes and tiny editions of just 10. I'd love one of these one day, even an unsigned original colourway edition of 250 would be nice.

Banksy Soup Can (Coloured) Print, by met on Sept 7, 2013 4:15:14 GMT 1, Can't believe people are not all over these like they are with Nola and CYW. They're all great colourways, neat sizes and tiny editions of just 10. I'd love one of these one day, even an unsigned original colourway edition of 250 would be nice.
Banksy's soup cans (like the petrol bomb image) were based on the Tesco Value brand, which Tesco announced would be discontinued in April last year. It was replaced by Tesco Everyday Value, a range having completely different packaging.
With that 2012 relaunch, the Banksy works ceased to be current and topical — at least in design terms — and instead became historical.
For some collectors, this might make the art less interesting, given it was intended as a 21st century / contemporary take (whether that be a piss-take, a homage, or both) on Warhol's Campbell's soup cans. Of course others may be indifferent to the change at Tesco, or even feel it makes the art more desirable.

Hopefully the seller, simonf, will forgive my indulgence of following up on this topic with ruggs.
First, in the interest of full disclosure, I don't own any Banksy Soup Can or Soup Cans canvas, screenprint or poster, and I don't have a particular desire to own one, which leaves me pretty much unconcerned about the current or future prices of these works.
Second, no offence taken to the your comment. What's unclear but of genuine interest to me is whether your issue is with a specific point that was made, or my post in its entirety. I'll leave aside the factual statements, assuming they aren't in dispute. Of the views expressed, my impression is the main one you disagree with (despite the careful qualifiers) is, "For some collectors, this might make the art less interesting".
Would this be the assertion that forms the bulk of the load of cock?

I don't think that the change of branding by the supermarket will make this print any less interesting or desirable. It remains a great image imo.
It's difficult to back this up with any facts or figures. It's an opinion. But I guess the obvious comparison would be with warhols Campbells soup can. I have no idea whether Campbell's have rebranded, but if they have it's made no difference to the desirability of warhols can, and if they haven't, but do at some point in the future, again I very much doubt it would make warhols image any less desirable. I do not own either btw.

coach — Thanks for your thoughts on the subject.
It's worth mentioning that whether the image remains great is a separate issue which wasn't touched upon by me.
We're in complete agreement about this being difficult to back up with any facts or figures. For this reason, my original comment was expressed as simply a possibility rather than a certitude, and such possibility was restricted in scope to just some collectors. Other collectors who may be indifferent or take the opposite view were also referred to.
So the statement was by no means a sweeping one. It seemed fair to me, hence my desire to understand which part ruggs disagreed with.
The Warhol Campbell's soup cans comparison is a good one, and our positions are identical about the Warhols being equally desirable to ourselves regardless of any rebranding. It's probably safe to speculate the same goes for the vast majority of actual Warhol collectors. That said, we aren't in a position to categorically say it applies to every single one of them.
For the sake of argument, let's assume rebranding by Campbell's had zero impact on collector interest in Warhol soup can paintings and prints — iconographic images based on an original concept conceived half a century ago by a long-deceased artist. I'm not certain rebranding by Tesco necessarily also resulted in zero impact on collector interest in Banksy Soup Cans. The situations can be distinguished by the fact the latter works are derivatives (knowing nods or tributes to, and/or spoofs of, the Warhols) and created by a still-active contemporary artist. Among those who believe Banksy's artistic intent was to produce a humorous, distinctly British, and 21st-century version on the Warhol imagery, some may feel a little saddened about the update no longer being fully up-to-date.
This point might be more convincing if made another way, using the following fictitious scenario:
Say it's 2005 and I've just purchased the Banksy Soup Can canvas in Westbourne Grove or one of the Soup Can screenprints at Pictures on Walls, giving me a vested interest. For many years that follow, each time I spot Tesco Value soup cans at Tesco, they're a pleasant and amusing reminder of what I have at home, a piece that brings me great joy. Conversely, the artwork feels even more contemporary, more relevant, and more interesting to me by the very fact it directly references part of my quotidian life, i.e. what I always see while out grocery shopping.
Now let's say it's 2011 and Tesco is considering a possible change, either to (i) leave the Tesco Value range exactly the same, or (ii) rebrand with the new name Everyday Value and a new packaging design.
From my perspective as a Soup Can collector, these two options would not leave me indifferent. If offered the choice, for reasons including those mentioned above, I'd rather Tesco Value remain unchanged.
Query whether such a personal preference would also be a load of cock.

Banksy Soup Can (Coloured) Print, by Deleted on Nov 25, 2013 23:51:24 GMT 1, How can you tell if a back door print is authentic? Just wondering. Lovely set, gl with the sale Indeed that pencilled number and a PC cert increase a value ,say, tenfold I have to say though, with spcreenprints of the Banksy series, there is no substitute to comparing legit to backdoor and giving it a good going over - I have checked over a few of these and the differences between a fake copy and a backdoor from the same run are massive and when you know what to look for, its easy to see the difference. I have an unreleased test in an odd colour of an Banksy early print and the subtle detials of the colourway screening blemishes are present in both. Though unless you can get your hands on a straight one to compare to the backdoor, side by side, then this isnt much use
so a big difference between backdoor quality and original screenprint. Sounds like wcp.

Banksy Soup Can (Coloured) Print, by Lunch Special on Nov 26, 2013 6:57:02 GMT 1, People know about the mystery of back door Banksy prints. So how wouldnt it be easy to fake one then?
If your after the image itself, then put some work in, do some research, save some pence, then go buy something that will justify your purchase later on.
Just think about the conversation and what your face would look like when someone asks you about the print and you start looking at the ceiling, the floor and wherever you can to tell a story about how you own some back door prints.
Do you think this would increase the value of a personal collection or depreciate it?

I think it doesn't get as loved because its message isn't so boldly clear or 'funny' as it usually is?

Banksy Soup Can (Coloured) Print, by letiss on Jan 8, 2014 17:51:54 GMT 1, Obviously the image isn't as iconic as Campbell's Warhol, but this is a great print and quite underrated. But will it age well as even Tesco got rid of their blue stripe design? The new cans now look like this:

Best of luck with the sale, I'd love one of these one day.

And as a UK citizen I've never fancied the idea of constantly being reminded of this company in my house - they have undertaken some fairly dodgy practices to get to where they are.
indeed, exactly the reason i've never warmed to either the cans nor vlh.
talk about branding ? ... oh the irony.... give me golf sale any day... cans don't make me laugh.

Oddly enough though, its the main reason I WOULD want it!
If it said BP or Exxon, no way I'd have it hanging about.
