Especially with his latest GDP release of the 'proper' thrower.

Banksy RAT Print, Gross Domestic Product , by DB on Sept 1, 2020 15:34:00 GMT 1, The cover of the first Banksy book = Flowers
The rarest of the two prints = Flowers
The largest (dimensions) = Flowers
The best 'sold' results = Flowers
Which one I own = Flowers

Nothing more than half an arm holding some flowers. Also, let's not forget... the GDP rat is now on the new COA's and rats in general have a strong sales history.

Simple experiment show both gdp pictures to a friend that does not collect banksy and ask which image is associated or made by banksy
Team banksy is looking to open up new markets and new buyers will be more familiar with the rat association as by the numerous street works and stickers , dvd etc and as pointed out the points above

Secretly I prefer the rat.

Banksy RAT Print, Gross Domestic Product , by sicando on Sept 4, 2020 9:33:09 GMT 1, Just thought I would share an image of the Banksy GDP Rat by son picked up and I framed so he can enjoy on his wall (which I know is a novelty for many). You can see the discolouring in the last 11 months...I guess he can continue to enjoy it on his wall but I will get some UV glass...
Also there has been some discussion about authenticating these posters so this image shows how VERY raised the back of the paper is by the screenprint ink.

Even with uv glass you will get the edge fading after 5 years (as I have experienced)

Said this before and I will say it again to help . I went to Croydon daily . I got three rats from the Men in Brown coats . Two are very raised on the back . One isn’t at all . There are other ways to check . Peace

Imagine if They did a stunt that made Them from a type of paper that degrades / disintegrates after a set time , Pr up there with shredded gwb😂

I got one through the forum and one from Ebay, they both look legit, but the sizes of the paper are slightly different. Anyone mind measuring theirs for me? DM with details if you don't mind!

(I know to some they are worthless and to others they are hens teeth) 😂 I'm leaning towards the hens teeth camp as the rat makes me smile whenever I see it

(I know to some they are worthless and to others they are hens teeth) 😂 I'm leaning towards the hens teeth camp as the rat makes me smile whenever I see it I was offered $2800 for my GDP rat that is framed to museum specs. This time next year, I can see them going for $3.5 / $4k. Wow didn’t expect offers of that value to be out there tbh, although I do think it’s a great piece to have on the wall (especially as I wasn’t lucky enough to get chosen to purchase the rat clock)
