which Banksy is best, by Michael Jacob on Oct 5, 2006 4:14:48 GMT 1, Hello. I just joined the forum tonight. I just starting appreciating Banksy about 4 months ago. Its tough to learn about him over here! I collect art, and want one for my wall. What one Bansky print would you buy, if you could only have one. I collect art for pleasure, but also as an investment. What one do you think will be the most valuable in future, and why? I cant afford an orginal, but would really like a signed print. Also, on a smaller opinion, what one of the six do you think would be the best investment from the LA group. Thanks for your help.

which Banksy is best, by lesroy on Oct 5, 2006 7:42:53 GMT 1, Man thats almost impossible to answer...
The most valuable are always the oldest, and those that were done in small runs. eg. Kate Moss, Christ with Shopping Bags, Radar Rat.
Banksy has certain classic images that are very sought after... Girl with Red Balloon, Laugh Now, Flying Copper.
To be really honest though mate... as everyone says... you have to buy what you like, not what will be worth a mint.
I have five prints but the one I would never part with is my "Jack & Jill" this is one of his newest and worth the least out of my whole collection but I LOVE IT! I smile every single time I look at it... and thats what you've gotta buy it on... whether it makes you have emothion for the piece!

Grin reaper is a newer signed print but is a fabulous print and will hold its own in years to come.

which Banksy is best, by liquid on Oct 8, 2006 9:19:17 GMT 1, Hi
I'm new here too...stumbled across Banksy in a book shop last year when killing time in Oban while it was P***ing down with rain.
I have always stopped to read stuff on walls and feel a feel buzz when I read a message that tells the truth (as I perceive it) and shows the the guys at the top that there are some people out there who are not completly brain washed.
My advice...collect the images that make you smile/laugh/cry/other emotion (delete as applicable) and forget the money!!

which Banksy is best, by kentrfc1 on Oct 8, 2006 15:20:41 GMT 1, I got the Gangsta 'iPOW' rat which is proudly hanging on my wall. Very pleased with it. Is there any chance of those sort of prints being done again?
