What was so special about it?

Worst case : there's this one for ยฃ385 (I guess you can find it cheaper!)

I didn't think any of them had Banksy's sig on them at all?
Nick Walker signed some, and the ones he didn't sign were hand finished to make up for his lack of scrawl isn't that right?

WTB First Great Weston Print, by Deleted on Apr 1, 2011 1:14:53 GMT 1, No they were never signed by Banksy. Of the 200 edition the first 100 Ultralounge prints were hand finished and not signed by NW. He signed the later Bristol edition (which were not hand finished or signed by Banksy) Of course Banksy gave his blessing but didn't want to sign.
here is mine and it is for sale (Ultralounge edition hand finished by Richt splatters and all)

Makes no sense, one went unsold for ยฃ290 last week. Ive never seen one sell for anything like those prices. Expressobeans is a poor indication anyway as it only includes info that people choose to add.

WTB First Great Weston Print, by jakek on Apr 1, 2011 18:25:44 GMT 1, I was actually thinking about this print last weekend as i wandered past screen one.
I remember these prints coming out back in the glory days when everything sold out. I thought about getting one at the time - i like china mike's style and so many artists being involved - but i couldn't justify it at the time. I think a lot of them ended up on ebay but i'm not sure how many got sold.
I'd guessed that there would be a lot of these floating around in portfolios and not making it on the walls as people got caught in the hype of the scene (i'm as guilty as the next man - beejoir's blurry mary and the d*face decks!) and i had thought these would have fallen well below the original value.
Now that I live down this way the image means more to me than it did but i think i'll wait a little longer if these are still going for crazy money.
Oh, and if ever anyone makes it down to bristol it's well worth checking out the area around where this print is based as the street art there is great (although i guess most readers knew that). Directly opposite screen one is the PRSC gallery and on the walls next to it are bits by paris, inkie, milk and limted press. Then within a stones throw there's mild mild west and more bits by limited press and hundreds of sickboy tags...
