Banksy • Girl With Red Balloon Print, by geminii on Jun 12, 2017 21:01:02 GMT 1, A nice upfront sales thread. I am sure Bignall could do something with it or just frame it out. I hope this finds a good home, plenty of people will accept the condition , however I can add nothing on price other than out of my reach ...... GLWTS.

Every Banksy print in the last 12 months has sold for top dollar, regardless of condition.
Find out the going rate for an u/s GWB and ask that for it.
Someone will pay what you ask + more.
Do not rush or be rushed into selling too low.
Get the best deal that you can, there are no friends in business.
Sold my signed GWB in Dec and it was both the worst and best decision in one.
Take your time.....
Good luck.

Banksy • Girl With Red Balloon Print, by Black Apple Art on Jun 12, 2017 22:52:19 GMT 1, Fantastic print and a prime example of why I always recommend having any framing mat raised up off of the print surface. I have yet to find any framer that does this without being instructed but due to seeing countless instances like this (this is a very minimal case) I started having all my matted prints framed using a secondary inset mat that raises the primary mat up off of the print surface a few mm. Of course using 99% UV glass/ plexi is also recommended, but given enough time that fraction of 1% can still leave damage from UV, mat pigment staining and / or leaving an impression of the contact area in the print. When the mat is lifted off the surface it lets the UV damage transition with a smooth almost undetectable gradient and eliminates pigment or impression damage. The worst cases are always with black mats that even when "archival" can still color the underlying print given enough time. Sorry to use a sales thread but thought it was a prime example and will benefit members and their art.

You might get 25k but sure start off with 30-35k. But I suspect it will go like the signed 1's getting put here at 100k and then transacting at 70k.
Also, there is a huge pile of union jack balloons hanging about as well, which could be released.

I doubt those Union Jack ones ever got printed, and they would probably have been smaller and done on a printer rather than sreeen printed.

The damage may hinder the price a bit, but you should still be looking at 30+, if not, very close to. Great sales thread, the way it should be done. GLWTS

I imagine we'll see a few Union Jack APs sneak out at some point.

It's funny but any small crease etc seems to be a big problem. Nobody cares any more if Warhol prints are wavy or have a small border discolouration I'm sure

Makes sense, but was archival framing outside of museums really a thing back then though? I feel like nowadays is completely reasonable to expect previous owners to have taken great care of their art. (Not to say OP hasn't, a little border discoloration isn't a shocker at all on an almost 15 Year old print)

You're probably right.... there will be a decent premium for the a1 minty stuff in years to come though.

It is had that problem on a rat years ago that I bought cheap hoping could sort out but he couldn't. Would still buy this tho at the right price it's a beauty I'm sure it won't hang around long. Good luck with the sale 😀

I would even buy it with a coffee cup stain! IMO keep it or take it to an auction house...
Someone said Warhol, well this one will be the equivalent of Campbell Soup or Marilyn in a near future.

Fact. Oh, unless Banksy does an unlimited edition release of the GWUJB. In which case, it might not be a fact and just you speculating.

It's not a fact either way. Still speculation.
