banksy police car, by danvnuk on Mar 7, 2008 20:59:12 GMT 1, ok got a heads up on this - this was never a print, this was only ever a stencil painting on canvas, so sorry to say babyjane, its not a real banksy
Just to be pedantic -
I agree, this image has never been a print - but this doesn't look like a print. It looks like stencil on card.....in fact, didn't babyjane state it was on card in the first post?
I wouldn't like to say for sure its not the real deal....

It could be an original done by him, or it mite be a fake, but before you go stating it on here thats its fake atleast let her go and check it out first.

All I was told was this piece was stencil painting on canvas and not cardboard

I do not know either but I would suspect it's not a print but spray on card board. Banksy used to do quite a lot of these and I'll see if I can find something like yours anywhere.
Please don't sell this for less than ยฃ40.000 before you are certain it is not an original Banksy.

Do not try to help when you don't have a clue whatsoever. This could cost someone tens of thousands. Like in this case.
This is probably from Turf War. I've seen several pics of it, but found this in a quick search:
www.artofthestate.co.uk/Banksy/Banksy_Turf_war_cop_car.htm
Art of the state is one of the oldest and best sites for Street Art, so you can trust them. If it's this exact version i don't know, but I wouldn't be surprised.
I would guess it's worth from ยฃ30 000 to the double if not more.

All I was told was this piece was stencil painting on canvas and not cardboard ok got a heads up on this - this was never a print, this was only ever a stencil painting on canvas, so sorry to say babyjane, its not a real banksy. Perhaps i should be less helpful and more antagonistic - it is much more fun. I may have missed the odd post or two, could anyone show me the "helpful" one?
ahh u havent met alsbarbar ... he is the resident 'banksy expert'

compare the shadow from the front bumpers - they are different in each image
no can can really say, they are all just educated guesses. your best bet is taking to LAZ. in know they've split, but his opinion will still be very valuable in this situation.

you are indeed right - there is a dimple (going down) about an inch in on the right on the one in question - it is the same in the turf war one - but different in the one from the artofthestate........

If your story is true then without a doubt seek expert opinion and try to get some form of authentication.
If its real and you can prove it its worth a significant sum of money.

As a few people have said - this looks good enough that she should seek some proper authentication from Laz or PestControl or whoevers doing it nowadays ;D
Could be sitting on a hell of a lot of money (which was brought home to me rather forcefully, as I popped in Andipa today for a look - and some eye wateringly expensive Banksy's have been sold - forget about the originals, 8k for a Colour trolleys - sold!!
