Banksy • Girl With Red Balloon Print, by 18921892 on Sept 14, 2020 22:59:15 GMT 1, After taking a long deep breath, it might be time for me to make a change to one of my walls. After some rather incredible auction results , I’m toying with the idea of swapping my beloved unsigned Girl with Red Balloon (with coa in my name) for another Banksy image & getting a little bit of cash in my back pocket at the same time. I’d ideally like one or two signed Banksy and some cash in return for this beauty. If you are in the position where you would like to swap one of your works and some cash for this, please PM me. If no pm’s come my way I will just have to hold onto her for another 10 years. I’m in London. I’m open to most of his works - my top of the pile would be Signed Barcode Signed Rats Coloured Gangstas NOLA Choose Your Weapon (not grey) Signed Happy Choppers Signed Laugh Now Thanks, JR

Fantastic print, but you may have to get this out the frame, I've seen black mats bleed into prints. Especially if you've had it for 10 years like this. |

Hard for me to conceive throwing cash on top of an important signed print edition under 150 for an unsigned print ed of 600... And I imagine I wouldnt be the only one thinking that. Cash helps avoid these emotional comparisons.

Banksy • Girl With Red Balloon Print, by gorkie on Sept 15, 2020 17:25:06 GMT 1, Keep the Girl With Balloon, you'll never go wrong with that.
Mostly because it's a more universally beloved image worldwide.
But that kind of money can really help somebody out. So I totally get why he would want to do a trade + cash sitch.
Good luck with it whatever you decide OP!

That one is signed, but I believe an unsigned GWB went for £174k recently |

Can't wait for Banksy signed and unsigned prints to be worth more than Banksy originals! It feels like that at the moment, just not many originals on the market recently. Everyone is holding on to them. I suspect its only a matter of time until all originals pull away and out of reach from print buyers. Heavy Weaponry at Bonhams soon and of course the Show me the Monet at Sothebys. |

Banksy • Girl With Red Balloon Print, by simmsax on Sept 21, 2020 11:46:44 GMT 1, i have a white signed Morons print and a Jack and Jill signed print. I have an unsigned silver flags and unsigned i fought the law.
Incredibly back in the day all i actually wanted was a signed "Girl with a balloon" to give to my daughter as a gift but even back in 2010 they were always more expensive than i wanted to pay, lol. Therefore i ended up buying a signed Jack and Jill print instead which was a classic print. Let me know if any take your fancy and cash injection but open to ideas. Personally i think the Morons signed print is going to come of age because of the timing of this release just before the art market crash. i am London based btw. Cheers.

Banksy • Girl With Red Balloon Print, by pumpkintico on Sept 22, 2020 11:37:06 GMT 1, Hi, I'm looking for some advice from you all please. I bought an unsigned GWRB direct from POW back in the day. It was framed professionally and has hung on my wall since. However, I notice that the glass is not spaced from the print. There is no surround mount. I'm a bit worried about damaging it by removing it from the frame in case it has stuck to the glass - is this a legitimate concern? Ideally I would like to have it reframed to gallery standard but not honestly sure how to go about it. Interested to hear what anyone else would do or if anyone has experience of this.
The recent auction results have made me think about just taking it down and storing it in one of these (http://www.artpakk.com/our-products/artpakk-size-3/). I had thought about trying to get hold of a West Country Prince replica to hang in the same place (heresy?!). Can't seem to find any WCP GWRB available just now either (without paying £400+).

I’d send it straight to Bignell. Even if it isn’t stuck to the glass, it’s been framed for 15? Years. Could be other issues your unaware of.. Bignell can unframe it safely and address any issues should they arise.

Best to bring it to Bignell and have them sort it.
Maybe it needs some TLC anyway, which will always be worth it.
WCP releases prints every now and then. Just wait for a new batch and get one for 60 quid.
Or hey, get 2!

Banksy • Girl With Red Balloon Print, by damo on Sept 22, 2020 12:06:03 GMT 1, I had exactly the same worry with ours a few years back which hung in the kids room until the value got too silly. Fortunately that came out perfect when i took it out of the frame myself, albeit yours is now worth a lot more so tread with real care. Key issue is probably more likely to be fading, dependent on how much sunlight it has gotten over the years, and the edge hidden under the frame.
I also replaced it with the WCP print which i picked up off someone on here, it makes for a nice reminder what was once mine! I have had a few regrets with the current prices but.. then i remember i bought something for £90, and sold it for £20k, which allowed the wife a year off working a crappy job to retrain as a teacher, which she now loves. So, all in all, still a great trade.
Nah just kidding, been crying myself to sleep all week ;-)
