Banksy Barcode unsigned, by Deleted on Oct 6, 2014 15:20:55 GMT 1, I was purchasing an unsigned barcode from a client in london but when i got the condition report from graham bignell there were a few issues, if i had bought it wouldnt have been for the gallery i would have offered it on it here as you guys/gals understand issues with earlier works better than the general public, the main print itself is in good condition bar a small handling crease which bignell says will come out no problem, the 2 tape tabs used were non conservation but again can be removed, there is a 3mm grey section around the outside where the mount was covered, bignell believes it was possibly from non conservation black mounting in the past and cant be removed obviously can be covered again by the mount, if anyone is interested pm me and i will pass on the chaps email and you can take it from there, please dont contact me regarding price you can discuss this with the owner, hes been a great guy to deal with and very understanding. The sale will have nothing to do with me im just passing details on.
Best,
Andy

"Conservation" most of the time means non acidic but in no way does it always mean the material can not negatively affect your art.

Like the comment I made yesterday about all "mint" prints being in excellent condition I have always found that all Banksy prints are "conservation framed." So, what I do is simply ask "How is this framed?" and if the reply is not 100% conversation grade framing with UV glass, acid free mounts and board and acid-free adhesive I just don't bother any more. |

In case you need to sell your art it will be worth the same as what you payed for it or even a bit more? That goes for slightly damaged prints too i guess. And a print looses it's mint 'status' when it was framed right? So why only buy mint prints when you are going to frame them and enjoy them on the wall?
And thanks for this opportunity @andy3636 ! Someone can get a real nice print here!

Banksy Barcode unsigned, by 1978per on Oct 7, 2014 8:41:10 GMT 1, nice opportunity to get a great print for a decent price then? It looks stunning with black mount so you'll have years of enjoyment anyway :-). In a situation where you can choose between a mint and one with the issues, of course everybody want the mint one. But that situation seems to be rarer nowadays.

Apparently not then  . I don't know what I'm talking about. I just think the print looks great framed.
