Why do members never discuss reaper results on here ? for some reason they seem to be avoided in conversation and yet if im not mistaken this is a record price and up there with Barcode etc;
Strange indeed and in my opinion one of his most enigmatic and memorable works so cmon people stop hatin on the reaper and just enjoy watching it become more popular and sought after !!
Good day ya'll

tbf - Grin Reaper is (ok one of ..) B's finest work(s) ... in terms of quality - perhaps not for everyone - in these .. times of existential pressure.

People here may also not speak too much of this edition as the edition was relatively small... so not many folks here may actually own one.

Oh dear. If that’s cool I do not want to see the lots of an uncool auction.

Nice trio of signed placard rats in there, all with exclamation marks after the signature

Great auction for Bonhams, some great photos in there

Adjusted banksy prices, chines are gone now

Id say Banksy index will be off 30% on the back of this.

Toxic Mary the dog amongst the pack of dogs.

[LJCal]

Looks like people are finally realising Grannies and Colour Trolley Hunters have been overvalued. Strong result for LN, Flag and BME.

[samo]

I haven't seen artdelight for a while... 😅

[Deleted]

Some half decent results for a few, some very poor prices for a lot. Is this the start of a price correction for Unsigned prints now? Signed will continue to increase and unsigned start to fall back a bit?

The Colour trolleys is a very surprising result.

Yeah, this is the way I saw it too - decent enough results for the signed prints (Colour Trolleys aside), and under par results for the majority of the unsigned prints - especially that Grannies.

I guess you will know after the March auctions.

When that Grannies hammered I heard his head pop, through my noise cancelling headphones and all.

A big drop for Grannies, they had been around 55k the last few months and very consistent until today. Other prints had been bouncing about in price though. Bomb Middle England had been up and down the last few auctions to what is probably a record price now. There had not been any BMEs for a long time, but a good few have come up recently.

Edit: Grannies had condition issues. Other prints may also have had condition issues, but I have not checked them.

[Richy Rich]

I didn't think Bonhams had put up any decent Banksy results for couple of years now? Especially compared to Sotherbys and Christies and even Forum to a degree?

Very true.

The unsigned HMV also did quite well after the other unsigned prints went for those lower prices.

It looks like we might be entering into a period of volatility for the unsigned prints...
