Backdoor Banksy Prints, by sohohoho on Sept 12, 2011 22:42:38 GMT 1, A genuine back-door print has been printed using the same screens used to create the official editions. They are usually no different other than the addition of a pencil signature/number, but test prints (different colours/papers/sizes) do exist. Whether you like it or not, they are and will be far from worthless.

Any hints, tips or advice on how to identify a geuine BDP isoaflip? (bearing in mind, if someone had an original Banksy print to compare it to, they probably wouldnt be buying a BDP in the first place)

but how does a buyer know they are buying a genuine backdoor print rather than a recently created copy? Catch 22, if you are able to compare them to a genuine print then you probably wouldnt be buying one in the first place. The recent coppies claim to be printed on very similar stock to the originals etc
Genuine backdoor prints probably will carry a certain price as isoaflip says, but actually identifying a genuine one will be the tricky bit.

The sheet of tenners fetched ยฃ600 the other day, they must of been good, I wonder if a forum member bought them.

Backdoor Banksy Prints, by Deleted on Sept 13, 2011 1:47:43 GMT 1, I'd love to know the thinking behind having three colourways of the same print on a wall? As for me it makes close to no sense aesthetically or thematically.
if they're actual authentic banksys it seems like pure braggadocio and if it's fakes (which however you frame it all backdoor prints are) it's just l ikea wall covering.
Anyway from an old head view this thread makes incredibly sad reading.

600 pounds on something with no means of proving it's authentic - pure idiocy.
There is no such thing as an authentic backdoor print that's a misnomer, any statement made otherwise will make a fool depart from his money.

Backdoor Banksy Prints, by Rolex on Sept 13, 2011 2:19:48 GMT 1, It all comes down to how you value ยฃ600 ,it's all relative I suppose , I'm guessing the signed og of both prints would be ยฃ10k each, therefore is ยฃ600 really that far off the mark compared to say a more modern unsigned but numbered print. Assuming of coarse it is a genuine back door print !!!

Backdoor Banksy Prints, by Deleted on Sept 13, 2011 2:54:10 GMT 1, Here's all the knowledge you need:
Only buy an unauthenticated print if you're willing to sell on as such (if you can not get authentication) and do not mind that it is not and never will be viewed as anything other than a reproduction of dubious nature.

Backdoor Banksy Prints, by ABC on Sept 13, 2011 22:49:08 GMT 1, Apart from the BD prints, there are also plenty of prints out there that are not from the official edition run. I've seen a few unumbered but signed prints in the flesh and they are no different from the numbered run. Some have doodles with his signature etc on them. Banksy gave out a lot as gifts but they were tests and extras so it would be hard to get COA for these. POW always printed additional prints ontop of the official numbered amount so they could replace prints that were damaged in the post if needed. Normally a print house would destroy returned damaged prints and reissue another with the same number if required.

Backdoor Banksy Prints, by kaisersosay on Jan 23, 2013 13:59:28 GMT 1, Hi looking for some old Banksy backdoor prints. (No WCP please)
After selling most of my Banksy prints to fund something else nothing to do with art, I have plenty of wall space to fill.
Please let me know what you have and a price.
I am in Central London, cash on collection.
Thanks.

I don't know how they get away with stating authentic if the print can not be authenticated in any way? quite a lot of back doorers have been popping up in the last few months and I am sure will continue to do so for the next decade or so..

Backdoor Banksy Prints, by kazzazz on Aug 5, 2014 15:54:39 GMT 1, What is the difference between these and the versions West Country prince produces?
Surely the quality is identical and once framed and displayed they are the same. Seems madness that people will spend hundreds if not thousands on something with no COA and no edition number....spend ยฃ50 and get a reproduction from WCP.

Surely the quality is identical and once framed and displayed they are the same. Seems madness that people will spend hundreds if not thousands on something with no COA and no edition number....spend ยฃ50 and get a reproduction from WCP. Backdoors are identical to the numbered run - if they are genuine.
The difference between that and the WCP repro's is paper, colour reproduction, screen size in some cases and most importantly, the fact that you know the backdoor is from the same run as the rest of the numbered prints and its not some cheap shite knocked up by some bloke to make a few quid from someone else's talent.
You put a WCP on the wall and you'll always know its not the real thing.

Surely the quality is identical and once framed and displayed they are the same. Seems madness that people will spend hundreds if not thousands on something with no COA and no edition number....spend ยฃ50 and get a reproduction from WCP. and by the way, don't you think its madness that people are spending thousands if not tens of thousands on banksy prints that cost ยฃ150 originally?
no, you don't, because there is an after market demand that creates a value for those prints.
that same demand trickles down to the genuine but unlicensed prints, albeit at a lower value, because they also have a finite supply. add to that the lack of new prints, the lack of reselling of numbered prints and you start to see the reasoning behind this lower level market place.
there will never be an after market demand for WCP prints, not for genuine collectors anyway.
I hope that answers your question.

Edit: the guy selling has messaged me through eBay asking me to clarify this statement, so here you go....
i am not questioning if these are 'genuine' backdoor prints. I am saying the longer you have these sales going / the more you sell, you risk the wrath of POW. PC have a dim view of these sales. Don't get yourself in hot water....

Interesting though that he is giving a 60 day money back guarantee. Must be confident with his product.
Bit suss though to be selling so many.....though I was under the impression the PF was a re-list?
