wow, felix, thanx 4 that link, i was trying to get one of these limited parcels a few times on ebay and stopped checking the source- site long ago, because it was never available and of course being limited to only 200 pieces i thought they had sold out during the exhibition, but NOW, about a year later they put the remaining ones on, GREAT!!!

Thats a great book and a bargain at £50! My copy is signed by just about everyone other than Banksy himself. And its a interesting read.....just wish they thought twice about calling it "spank the monkey!". s**t name IMO.

They have always been available in the shop. Ive seen one on ebay sell for less than cost. Didn't like the faile for this exhibition. Far too political for me. www.flickr.com/photos/63258348@N00/295273804/ |

Just picked one up, getting a good collection of art books now and this should be a great addition.

melmoth, weak excuse. get home and post us pics. ;D I can't - I've got a deadline on a project, and I've just ordered in take out. I'll see if I can bribe the missus. |

Hmm. Not encouraging. Just called the missus, and got her to take it out of the tube, which is a difference for a start, because the other prints I've had from them have been shipped flat.
She said that there was a piece of bubble wrap in the tube to stop it from moving around, and that one end of the print was 'very close' to the end of the paper. No damage apparently.
She rolled it out, and I asked her to see what the hand finishes were. Her response was 'What hand finishes?'. I told her to look for paint splashes, coffee, etc. Nope. She looked at the back side of the print and noticed some discoloration, and located that back to the front. Any hand finishes, at least on mine, are just white paint (at least she thinks that it's white paint) splashes, but not to any noticeable degree. Not enough for her to demonstrate in a picture anyway.
I'll have a look when I get home. It won't be for a couple of hours though folks.
