FS Original Banksy Turret Tower, by rob on Feb 16, 2010 16:25:59 GMT 1, For sale a "Turret Tower" hand carved by Banksy for Santas Ghetto Bethlehem 2007.
This piece is from a low edition of only 15 and was won by me through the blind auction. This comes complete with Pest Control COA.
Most of the Turret Towers were made in collaboration by Banksy with other artists. This one was only made by Banksy and is classed as one of his originals.
I am looking for offers. If you have any questions please send me a message.
Thanks for your time to read this thread.

I do have some photos but I'm not sure how to load them up? Any advice and I'll post them on here asap.
Thanks

FS Original Banksy Turret Tower, by ยฎat on Feb 16, 2010 23:32:41 GMT 1, The correct title is 'Watchtower'
Hand carved from olive wood
Only available by placing a blind bid in person in Bethlehem at santas ghetto '07.
The Edition consists of:
-15 plain watchtowers signed and #/15 by Banksy
-7 unique collaboration watchtowers signed by both Banksy & the collaborating artist (all of these collaborating artists did pieces for Santas ghetto 07)
These are unique so are unnumbered.
- Blu (cracked tower)
- Peter Kennard (bleeding coca cola can with olive leaves)
- Kelsey Brookes (hope with jewish star in the 'O')
- Paul Insect ( US dollars)
- Ron English (US flag/broken dollars on base)
- Gee Vaucher-(barbed wire with dollar and olive leaves)
- Cat Picton Phillips -(wrapping paper)
I am lucky enough to have more than one of these.. and I also have photos of all of the collab ones I can post if people would like to see them.

FS Original Banksy Turret Tower, by ยฎat on Feb 17, 2010 5:21:54 GMT 1, Title: Watchtower

Hand carved from Palestinian Olive Wood
Edtion:
-15 Plain- Signed and numbered on base by Banksy
-7 Unique collaborations between Banksy & other artists present at the ghetto 2007. Signed on the base by Banksy & the collaborator- these are not numbered as they are unique.
You had to visit the ghetto in person to submit a bid for any of these.
- The towers were one of the first things you saw when entering. Depending on when you went to the ghetto, you may not have seen all of these when you walked through the door:
The collaboration towers in detail are:

- Kelsey Brookes (hope)
- Paul Insect ( US dollars)
- Ron English (US flag/broken dollars on base)

This is a photo taken of a mixture of some of the plain ones, and some of the collaboration ones before they were completed/decorated. Note the massive variations in the grain of the wood.
