Banksy FILM POSTER 'Exit Through the Gift Shop', by Happy Shopper on Mar 4, 2010 11:17:44 GMT 1, Should be dead easy to tell if they're lithographs or ink jet prints.
Even if they are lithographs, they could still be fake though.
Whether the printer was named or not, whoever ordered them to be made would know they were now being sold and weren't destroyed. So refusing to name the printer sounds fishy to me.
I'm not ordering one to find out!

Banksy FILM POSTER 'Exit Through the Gift Shop', by Scraffer on Mar 4, 2010 11:21:30 GMT 1, Hmm... Mine arrived thismoorning. Llos legit, but you just can't tell. To be honest, I'm gonna get mine framed up. Why would Imbue fake them?! I don't care to be honest. Looks good enough to me....

Banksy FILM POSTER 'Exit Through the Gift Shop', by Agent Provocateur on Mar 4, 2010 11:32:13 GMT 1, I'm with Lo Key on this one, why would Imbue go out of his way to fake a few posters like this. For a couple of hundred quid there's no point in tarnishing ye olde reputation!
The story seems fine too, printer gets an order to print a X thousand A2 'Exit...' posters before the release as part of a marketing thing. Once printed the film gets a 15 rating so legally they probably can't advertise the film with a lower age (the Quads and undergound posters were already up so left). Printer is asked to pulp the lot... buuut some clever printing elf manages to squeeze a few of the little paper blighters out of the back door before pulpation occurs!

Banksy FILM POSTER 'Exit Through the Gift Shop', by Scraffer on Mar 4, 2010 13:06:18 GMT 1, True. But the one little niggle for me is why would they print "Promo" posters, let alone on this size paper. Who would they have been given to?

That's why this is all speculation really, none of us know, but we're trying to rationalise what could have happened.
I think the jury may well never come in on this one.

Banksy FILM POSTER 'Exit Through the Gift Shop', by Happy Shopper on Mar 4, 2010 14:32:45 GMT 1, Are they still available on ebay? I can't see them anymore.
I think I noticed they were being sold by a new account, with just 1 feedback point.
Does Imbue normally sell things under that account?
And I'm surprised, if they're legit, he didn't offer them here.

He probably didn't think that his email would appear... or forgot it would appear!
He is normally on here, and he's a good guy to deal with.
Hopefully he can clear this up.

Freerange... you also said all the promos had the detail in the hoody which Euro Bob disproved with the promo he nicked, which didn't have the detail in the hoody. His pic is posted earlier in this thread and the hoody detail is obviously different from some of the legit copies posted earlier...
If anything, there seems to be more than one image that's being used for the legit posters. My 'Bay copy landed today. Litho on thin, gloss paper typical of lots of promos here in the states. Has quite a few small creases in the image though, so I requested a replacement copy. Guess we'll see and I'll post the update, but the print looks nice for a 20 
Wonder what kind of promo work they'll do when they premier it in LA or NYC???

Banksy FILM POSTER 'Exit Through the Gift Shop', by bullet on Mar 12, 2010 2:05:19 GMT 1, i was not aware of the variations on the typography, so i stand corrected on that.
but i am still not convinced over the image on the £20 posters, it does not look right and they are still being churned out even now.

That's the proper double sided quad poster!
I managed to get one last week, hard to come by.
I think I'll get mine framed with lights behind as they are intended to be! ;D
