Strawberry Donuts Framed For Sale, by picelj1008 on Oct 24, 2009 21:13:03 GMT 1, I am reluctantly selling my one and only Banksy print. It's 2XX of 299 and comes with POW authentication. I've only had it since August when it was released and i was lucky enough to come out in the POW 'lottery'. It's the Strawberry edition as you will see, i personally think it is the best of the two and i had it framed in an ornate matt black lacquered frame, complete with black 'fillet strip', and think it looks stunning. It was only removed from delivery tube in the framers, by the framer and then framed to what you see now, all work completed by a professional local framer here in East Lothian, Scotland and the photos you see are from the shop. I never intended to sell and that's the reason it was framed, however for one reason or another, partly financial, i've decided to see what i can get for it. The framing work cost ยฃ150. I welcome any offers but i'll do my homework on the market and hopefully an offer or two will come in and we can come to an agreement. [img src="[/img]"][img src="[/img]"]

Strawberry Donuts Framed For Sale, by picelj1008 on Oct 24, 2009 22:14:00 GMT 1, yep - a shame spenie .. i think the frame swallows up the image
it's obviously not going to be to everyone's taste or style. remember the post is intended for selling the print and not for a long running list of comments and criticism on the print or the frame! Having said that though, the picture posted probably doesn't do it justice. It was the picture sent when the framing was finished in the shop. I'll get other pics up that may represent the work better, here is another from the shop for now of a close up of the frame itself............

Very good advice. Parcel force managed to break the glass on a piece I received even though it had board in front of the print, lots of bubble wrap, well protected corners etc. Wrap it so its bomb proof and then add some more!

Strawberry Donuts Framed For Sale, by picelj1008 on Oct 25, 2009 11:24:52 GMT 1, All comments noted guys and appreciated, especially re packing, i think i'll end up shipping it in a metal box or delivering it personally in a luton van filled with bubble wrap!
I'll put some better pics on the thread later today, once i've been out with the kids and then watched Liverpool beat man Utd
