Banksy Placards โข Wrong War & Bomb Hugger, by sleazus1slord on May 31, 2017 14:03:34 GMT 1, Glaring how obvious of a fake this is. The face had a stroke, the bomb doesn't line up and is super wonky, different color and no drips on the 'NO' plus the proportion and how crooked the letters are, there's no stencil split on the top of the 'O' in the real ones. If you even had to ask, don't ever buy anything without a verified coa.

Banksy Placards โข Wrong War & Bomb Hugger, by annar50 on Jun 1, 2017 13:38:09 GMT 1,  Left is the one up for auction today, middle is one offered in Cornwall last year, and on the right is the one sold at Julien's a couple of years ago. I appreciate they're stencils, so the results will look different each time, but to me the face of the girl on the left and the fact there's no gap in the stencil at the tail of the bomb would make me concerned (well, that and no COA).
Looks well fake , colour NO is a lot deeper red . And the cardboard ridges are going horizontal and the other 2 are vertical

Banksy Placards โข Wrong War & Bomb Hugger, by maddart on Nov 25, 2017 11:48:12 GMT 1, Hi, just come across this post via Google so thought i'd join forum and add the following....
Having worked with and sold a number of Banksy placards from the 2003 anti war march, I hoped I could add some more to this feed.
Firstly, none of these placards from the anti war march come with a COA, please see following email issued by pest control:
โThis placard is not eligible for authentication because it was not created with the intention of being sold as a commercial work of art.โ
- PCO Customer Services
Regarding the differences between the placards (the 2 sold at Julienโs and Cornwall vs the one sold this year that differed), I do know there is not just 1 stencil / exact design, if you look at all the bomb hugger / bomber girl placards there are multiple differences, so comparing placards can be misleading as there are slight differences on the placards.
It would be unfair to add 2 identical placards to the one in question in this thread, and then to compare them to say the now โdifferentโ one sold at Cornwall and suggest the Cornwall one is fake because its 'different'... But to anyone unfamiliar with the placards from the war march it is easy to presume the one recently sold wasnโt a Banksy if you didnโt know about all the placard variations. A difference should be looked into, but doesn't always mean its a fake.
Please see attached picture from 2003. I know this piece well and its currently sitting in a recognised private collection, please note the small โNOโ stencil, gap in the โOโ and the duller colour red, please also note the shape of the bomb and there being a hand present. + the line / gap in the tail of the bomb almost nonexistent.
Please also see attached another Banksy recently sold at auction and is the same design as the design first in question in this thread.
Its worth checking as much footage / images of the rally to see the numerous placards that was used at the 2003 anti war march. Weโve even seen reversed versions of other designs in images from the march next to the โnormalโ versions and other unusual differences.
Hope this helps. Maybe if you own or have seen a Banksy from this war march post it so we can get as many variations on her as possible.

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.

And I don't even see anything close in the pics.
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 Placards โข Wrong War & Bomb Hugger, 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.

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.
