Hey folks, I've been a 10-year collector of prints, starting with a couple of mid-century modern favorites Dali, Picasso, Chagall, mostly in their entry level range of five grand or so. I wonder though is it possible to get into Banksy Prince for 10 grand or so?

If not, what is the entry level print or multiple that I could get into with one of those Pest Control c o a s?

I feel this is something that I could get into and eventually start trading up wards if im not "in love" with it.


I appreciate the help!

Construct two sets.
Set one: Banksy prints that you can afford.
Set two: Banksy prints that you like.
In the intersection of the two sets, if not empty, you’ll find your entry level Banksy print.

yes, you can [currently] buy a Banksy print in the $10K price range but it will be unsigned (as opposed to signed) and a “lesser” image. FLAGS seems to be a “good value” for the current price point (which is less than $10K). Good luck.

So let me suggest a pragmatic reformulation of your OP:
“I can spend up to X. Is there any Banksy print I can afford with this amount? And if so, which ones.”
Just fill in X.

Okay, my original question was is there anything that fits into 10K?

Might be worth specifying your currency.

I’m guessing £ as it was 10 grand
Edit: got that wrong 😄

[Chris JL]

Actually many unsigned ones you could afford. E.g.:
Morons
Monkey Queen
Golf Sale
Weston super mare
Flying copper
Bomb Middle England
Silver Flag
Napalm
Toxic Mary
Grannies
Have a nice day
I fought the law
Soup can
Queen Vic
Trolleys
Applause
Etc.

[Chris JL]

Was assuming GBP, but even with 10k usd many of the above are feasible.

[Pysgod]

You wont be buying anything signed for 10k whether you are talking dollars or pounds

Wrong War is signed and around that amount. Small, but nice. But there is only 100 of them so maybe hard to find.

Appreciate your help and that's a great starting point. That is probably my least favorite of his work but i'll reach out to some galleries and watch auctions. since this is my first look at his stuff, and i am not familiar how pest control works, can i email them hi res pics of a potential purchase and they can verify it? Ill start reading the rest of the posts to get whatever information I can but this can get me started.
Thanks

Flag is a nice image and you can get 1 for less than 10K USD

[touchdowntodd]

A few good ones available at 10k

Luckily, much easier to "legit check" than Chagall etc that u currently collect

[cest]

Looks like "sale ends" came in at 11 k usd at the april heritage auction .

Wrong War will get a coa. It's lesser value as it's not a Screen Print.

I got a COA for my Wrong War/Pax Brittania box set a few months ago.

Not sure what they sell for though as they seem to rarely come up...

Is wrong war signed on the front of the print?
