Would he have put something the rough out in 2007 is also a wonder. But again, i dont know.

Saying that, its signed 2007 even then you needed to have serious cash to buy one of these and laugh now is a really old image so that raises some questions in its self...

Banksy 'laugh now' canvas - case solved, by Deleted on Aug 24, 2011 8:37:03 GMT 1, It does show how easily we can all get sucked in. If it had been offered to me I couldn't get the pictures off to PC any quicker. They will say either way. But I'm sure when the owner gets a coa the price would become unobtainable for most of us!

That was an interesting little saga
In this case the thing that screams out to me is a recent signature and date on a piece that would have been in his repetoire approx. 5 years earlier than it has been signed
So for me, pretty unlikely, but anything is possible....

Banksy 'laugh now' canvas - case solved, by des77 on Aug 24, 2011 14:11:09 GMT 1, Are they usually hand made or shop bought frames ? Im surprised to see no stencil'd tag anywhere and that its signed in pencil with no date. I presume this sized piece would be editioned... so there should at least be a number with the sig. All guess work from me... hope it turns out good for you

On the other hand there's always a small chance it's true so have it authenticated and you know for sure.

s**t signatures on both front and back and in pencil, s**t stretch job on the canvas, s**t spray job on the image - yeah definitely 1 million % the real thing.
