Os Gemeos, Banksy, KAWS, Faile, Stephenson, Eine, Baechler, by mikehaspey on Jun 22, 2014 13:58:44 GMT 1, my thoughts lol surely they don't go for that? I got one given to me from laz last year lol I'm certainly in no rush to sell, but I saw a tenner sell recently with an artist's list from Santa's Ghetto 2004 for ยฃ700. I think I have one of those artist's lists so I will throw that in too.
That one on eBay was allegedly signed? So basically it was a fake but the people bidding thought they were buying a signed one. It was relisted too so I guess the buyer saw sense. Oh and the guy got his from the well known 'exit through the gift shop' exhibition. Hmmmm

They ended up in trouble for selling things they shouldn't have. The other Banksys they had on the walls that day included 2 crude oils and an OG flying copper on cardboard. The guy did the letter as a kind gesture and I'd rather have it than not. The nature of the item makes it very hard to authenticate, coupled with Tomtom's history at making up provenance for pieces they had no right or authority to approve, makes the letter a nice to have at best. There are a few signed banksy notes kicking about, there are also a lot of fake signed notes kicking about. I have no idea which side of the lines yours falls on, and care less, Tomtom sold plenty of fully legit and fine banksy pieces, I just pointed out that provenance from a company that also got very publicly outed for selling backdoor prints with letters of authentication might not be the best provenance for something that is already almost impossible to verify.
