banksy police car, by instinct on Mar 13, 2008 21:49:26 GMT 1, ok so it looks good on the record sleeve! not sure about babyjanes 'version' though.
no disrespect babyjane but the story stinks and to be honest the image you show does not look right to me!

Edit: Thanks prescription - you beat me to it.

banksy police car, by foreman on Mar 13, 2008 22:01:03 GMT 1, These are not mine, but they are from Turf War: 
Hi some more pictures of the copcar out of the fame 
these two pieces look different to my eye... the above one from the turf war show has a distinct bump to the cardboard at the upper right where it is hanging from the wire... baby janes does not appear to have this bump...
also along the back fender on the car from one at the show... the black shadow looks to be filled in entirely from the back tire to the back bumper... in baby janes there is a white line around the back tire which breaks the shadow...
im not saying yours isnt real baby j ... just saying these two pieces look different to me.
EDIT* just saw perscriptions post... im sure banksy probably did multiple versions this image on different pieces of cardboard and the spray was varied a little each time..

baby jane's definitely doesn't look like the one that hung at Turf War. The other one I have a picture of is different as well as it has a tag in the bottom left. My guess is that it's real but a third version, but to be honest you're going to have to try & get provenance one way or another. These things are too easy to fake.

They are all over on W A L L C A N D Y .COM
There are 3 or 4 members there that I'm sure will help you out and not mention your husband or make demeaning comments about shoes.

I sent message recommending the same course of action to her via PM a while back - but I just checked my sent messages and the WK part was magically removed..(Forgot you can't say it  )...so I'm afraid the message made no sense to her at all LOL

banksy police car, by Rude Copper on Mar 14, 2008 11:15:39 GMT 1, yeh, possibly a bit childish,
but for the record, possibly the only person on these forums who can claim to be something of an expert is 'thugs'(on the old ebay forum) , who is possibly 'a little bird' on here,
outside of that everyone else is a a student, & their opinions are exactly that, opinions.
i find it amazing that people constantly put themselves in the frame as arbitors of authenticity, when the extent of the knowledge is a copy of wall & piece & 6 months posting to a forum. when you think that the piece we're discussing is potentially worth, i dont know, ยฃ40,000?, dont you think people should be a little more sure footed with their information?

if you dont know, wk tends to be very factual, but also very dull, well, compared to the old ebay forum where it eminated from, anyway.

and i put myself through the pain or reading this horrible drivel probably because you bumped the thread. no harm no foul though and my curiosity and memory were what kept me in tune.

Just a general question to those more knowledgable than me... but on the assumption that both are exactly the same piece on cardboard it looks like the cardboard (particularly at the front of the car) has been cut down quite a lot in order to fit into that frame... is this important issue? There must be 2 or 3 inches missing off the right hand side... 
NEVER SEEN THIS BEFORE , LIKE
