Banksy - Graffiti is a crime aluminium sign, by urbanhangings on Oct 9, 2013 14:10:13 GMT 1, I have produced 50 of the now world famous Banksy sign.
This is a real 2mm Aluminum sign with high quality print .
I kinda partly done it to basically throw a spanner into the works of a certain @signofbanksy and also give you guys on the forum to own one of these.
This is a quality product i have kept at a low cost as its not really a money making excercise just thought that people would appreciate having one of these specially you guys.
I'm also going to give 20 percent of the profit to the Oker fundraiser by buying the fundraising prints and giving them away on here to forum members .
I will also be sending 2 out free to New York forum members for the best reporters we have covering this little saga.
Any left over after 1 week will be sold on the bay.
They can be bought here

How many did you make?

Banksy - Graffiti is a crime aluminium sign, by urbanhangings on Oct 9, 2013 14:35:52 GMT 1, I made 50 of these and these are not far from being cost as it is an actual sign. If you went to a signmakers this would cost you over 100 individually. I have friends in the industry that helped out by the time the artworker/printer/router have been payed and percentage to charity it really is not worth doing for any monetary reasons .
I kind of expected some sort of backlash but thats par for the course here. I could have just come on here or ebay comanding 100 quid but no . More to throw the mockers on the real sign and get my name out there as i have just taken a corner in a furniture shop selling artwork. Small steps.

Oh, it will get your name out there alright. You really are no better than the other 20, 000 peeps on ebay trying to earn money by ripping someone else's artwork off.

Banksy - Graffiti is a crime aluminium sign, by Deleted on Oct 9, 2013 16:06:38 GMT 1, Can someone explain the problem for me?, as far as i see hes just done these in a similar vein that WCP does the copy prints? only these are more topical at present and also not as many, plus hes donating some profit to charity and not passing them off as real, like nobody is going to think they are real i wouldnt think?.

I wouldn't buy it and don't see the appeal because it is only part of the piece it isn't complete. If I was in the market for a fake. I'd go for a full image.

I don't have a problem with the guy selling them. I just don't think he is being honest with his reasons. If he came out and said hey I thought I could make some money knocking these off and I'll give some of it to charity then good for him. But saying he wants to stick it to the guy who stole it or what ever is a load of crap. It is just a cash grab. Which is fine. But tell it how it is.

Banksy - Graffiti is a crime aluminium sign, by urbanhangings on Oct 9, 2013 18:48:15 GMT 1, This is defiantly not a cash grab if I was going to do that these would be a lot more money.There is virtually nothing for me in this but these are not cheap to make its not just ink and paper or a digital canvas.
When I first saw that guy parading that sign I thought that I'd love to make some so it would throw a spanner in his works and making just one is too expensive. So I came up with the idea to give some money to the oker fund as I thought it was aptly suited for the sign. Also I thought it would be good thing for members to have.
I knew coming on here selling this sort of stuff would be like a high street digital market printer selling art on here (wouldn't go down to well)That is not my intention to go down this road. It is a one off fun piece and the first and last time one I do anything like that. Ultimately im like you guys love art/Banksy etc and one day want to own a gallery space and produce prints from upcoming artists.
Right now aim on the bottom rung right now so Iam sorry if I have offended anyone.
I have helped forum members out in the past with signwork for free and will continue to do so . I will also send at my cost these to some NY members for there Stirling coverage of this as we can only admire this show in our armchairs.
Again sorry if I have offended.

Sent from my C5303 using proboards Why do you feel you have to apologise and explain yourself, to who? As a grown man you make your own choices and you did, you shouldn't feel ruled by what others say on a forum unless these people are all your mates that is or paying your bills. I don't like the sign, but then I wouldn't have stolen the real one either. I hope you do as you feel is right for you. |

Banksy - Graffiti is a crime aluminium sign, by urbanhangings on Oct 9, 2013 19:09:53 GMT 1, I have basically a small corner in a furniture shop in Staines as they had no art there. It is totally manned by them and they take a small cut.
Selling that sort of art in the stix where it's predominantly pikies/chavs is very hard hence the online section.

Unfortunately they are not a target customer instead they target the customers! The shops in Staines lose trade on Sundays as they come from allover to be quite disruptive there's probably 150 plus. Nandos,vue, Mac D all have to Lay on security on Sundays.The poor lady who's shop I have art in has had her laptop stolen by them causing a distraction., threatened and window broken as she wouldn't let them use the toilet. Now that's another level

Banksy - Graffiti is a crime aluminium sign, by anodyne13 on Oct 10, 2013 0:23:20 GMT 1, These prints further devalue the stolen item because it makes the stolen item more difficult to authenticate without word from Banksy or Pest Control. So great job in my book making the stolen pieces more worthless.
