Banksy placard from war march 2003, by silvermyn on Aug 8, 2019 9:05:58 GMT 1, Thanks for the replies people! Any reason in particular why you think itโs fake? I think the more pertinent question would be "Any reason in particular why you think it's not fake?".
If you only have the seller's word then buyer be ware. It's for you to be satisfied as to it's authenticity based on what you know. There's no obvious way to tell from just looking at the image, as there are a number of stencils for sale online that can generate a near perfect copy of the real thing. Have you been given anything vaigly credible to support it's authenicity? Make sure you're happy before you part with cash because PC will never authenticate this, even if it does turn out to be an actual piece by Banksy.

Also; these are VERY easy to reproduce. I can make one in an hourโฆ.
With a username like Stress Head I wouldn't be involved in any undocumented Banksy's

Banksy placard from war march 2003, by Extra Ball on Aug 8, 2019 12:20:20 GMT 1, Thank you all for your input. Seems the general consensus is itโs fake. I have managed to get closer pics of the supposed photos from the March showing parts of the placard. The creases on the photos seems to match up with the bottom of the placard but I suppose it wouldnโt be hard to create a placard to match the photo or even photoshop the photos. the second picture looks straight out of the 60's

More likely those photos have had the placard added in photoshop... in the first pic the tone of the placard doesn't match the rest of the picture. I'd also have thought the placard would look darker in both.

Banksy placard from war march 2003, by bazenald on Aug 12, 2019 7:38:18 GMT 1, Seems this seller on eBay is ripping people off. Iโve heard of someone buying from the seller and receiving a badly copied placard and poor quality photocopies of the photos of the women in this thread!
The seller of the placard is contacting people who messaged them when the eBay advert was active but now itโs finished they (the seller) are messaging them and saying the buyer let them down and did they want the placard with a heavy discount.
Someone told me yesterday they paid the seller ยฃ1200 and this is what they received below - top pic is the eBAY advert pic and pic below is what they received!! Nothing alike, the creases in the cardboard are totally different.
