Banksy Paris Hilton CD, by met on Dec 21, 2021 17:35:36 GMT 1, With further research, I discovered a 14 October 2020 sale at Tate Ward for ยฃ8,750*:
Oh, dear.
As Superintendent Hastings would say, โJesus, Mary and Joseph and the wee donkey!โ
But on the plus side, I suppose this does serve to emphasise points previously made:
If you choose to buy Banksy ephemera (posters, postcards, stickers, Di-Faced Tenners, or other items that don't come with a Pest Control Office COA), then you seriously better know your stuff. Because fakes are everywhere.
To my fellow members who have eyes in their heads, and haven't been blinded by self-deception โ Does anyone believe that sticker on the CD case looks authentic?
If only for seven or eight seconds, consider the following:
(i) odd brown colour; (ii) incorrect layout (spacing between the text and borders of the sticker); (iii) incorrect kerning (spacing between some of the individual letters); and (iv) corners of the sticker that look like they've been cut by hand with a pair of scissors.
Compare and contrast (genuine sticker on the bottom):

Also would like to say I greatly appreciate your postings and use of the scientific method when presenting your case. Youโre an immense asset to people on this forum whether anyone says it or not.

Banksy Paris Hilton CD, by Daniel Silk on Sept 28, 2022 13:49:38 GMT 1, I believe it's was 500 Paris Hilton CD's made by Banksy. I wonder now how many fakes are in circulation? Can anyone really be sure their CD is a genuine one? How can you tell? ๐ค
