Space Invader FOR SALE on ebay, by Deleted on Apr 17, 2020 18:22:05 GMT 1, There are quite a few of these out there. If you check the sellers eBay history you will see they sold at least one of these before - the buyer leaves negative feedback noting no Laz embossed stamp. To be avoided me thinks... Poster Bob has one similar for sale on his Ebay.
No Laz Stamp.. is that normal? Just checking as I am interested in one.

The seller has previously sold fake Banksy tat on many occasions. The seller will not respond to messages asking for paperwork and a receipt from the space shop. Most crucial of all, the seller is donating a portion of the sale to charity. Textbook Connor Brothers.

Interesting. The sig looks "good", but I will compare it to photos I have on file of signed/unsigned to see what the rear numbering is on the signed (*possibly* it's the same rear label), and if the sig matches. Good pickup, though. At first glance looks 100%

Space Invader FOR SALE on ebay, by Poster Bob on May 9, 2020 13:51:15 GMT 1, I certainly am not an expert on all things Invader and would need someone knowledgeable to opine on the front numbering vs the rear numbering. I could definitely be wrobg, but my purpose in posting about it was to warm anyone unaware of all of the red flags. That said, when everything is considered, stay away! Just look at his completed sales ๐คฆ

Space Invader FOR SALE on ebay, by sharky on Jun 17, 2020 16:23:35 GMT 1, Hi all, do you think this is legit?
www.ebay.it/itm/164240708131
I have asked for provenance and seller says this was gifted by POW when he acquired two Gee Vaucher limited prints.
Whatโs the value of this unsigned version?
Many thanks to all!

Space Invader FOR SALE on ebay, by avec art on Jun 17, 2020 16:42:34 GMT 1, I'd say this is legit. I don't think that many forgers are prepared to go to the lengths required to make fake copies of this. Too many colours and too much work. I think if it was, then they'd be making signed copies as well.

I do not know about this particular print, but it is worth pointing out that there are an increasing number of fake Invader prints circulating including on eBay.
Be careful when considering non embosses prints and sticker sheets especially unsigned.

Space Invader FOR SALE on ebay, by avec art on Jun 17, 2020 17:52:54 GMT 1, I don't really know about this either. But there appears to be some printing issues in the last photo (could this be why POW let it go but not making the edition rather than trashing it?). Also look at the white square 2 squares down from the Rubik Cubism square. There is a scratch in the screen coating and has made a thin black dotted line. and the yellow square 2 to the left of that.
Do 100% authentic ones of these have the same scratches. If they do then that would increase the likelihood this was made by the POW printers.

Space Invader FOR SALE on ebay, by avec art on Jun 17, 2020 18:20:34 GMT 1, yea I suspected as much. If someone were to make a fake of these, they'd need to scan an original copy, and thin lines like that would probably be lost in the process or at the very least more faint.
These dotted lines are v common in screen printing, it's where the chemical screen coat has become scratched or thin. But they are also very diagnostic, because they create a sort of fingerprint for that particular print, so long as the same screens were used.
I think that print was a dud. The paint didn't express properly around the Rubik square. But by the time the black is applied a massive amount of work has already gone into it, and it would be a great shame to throw it away. Perhaps then Ben Eine or a POW printer gave it to a friend and it became a backdoor print (we've seen a few with early Invader), and perhaps at a later date someone numbered it to make it more valuable.
Prisoner prints are a different matter because they're not screen printed.
