Banksy Queen Victoria Print

I tend to agree with your estimates Jam, but interesting point on Rude Copper. An ebayer has sold 2 RC's in January, both signed for 4k and 6k. Thinking that one of the deals fell through so he must have relisted it. The prices seem far cheaper than I would have expected so I think there must have been something wrong with the auction.

stuey09, I didn't even consider that seller because the price was so far off the usual mark that there must be something off with the deal. I remember seeing a unsigned RC in December from the US that may or may not have been dry mounted as it was framed and the seller didn't seem to know, and that did just over 5k in a normal auction (no private bidders or ones that looked to be shills as there were numerous near the end). Old adage, but if something looks too good, it probably is... once in awhile you see things on ebay that you know isnt right.

Related to the MQ, I have never cared much for the print. I agree its dated Britannia and aesthetically its quite different from most other Banksy images that it has made itself an outcast. Perhaps that was intended and therefore relevant, but it would never make my wall and I would imagine many others feel the same way and thats reflected in the prices.

Hi,

I have a mint queen vic. It was framed and mounted professionally on purchase using acid free backing. It is unsigned, number 53/500. I have a credit card receipt from Sleaze Nation as proof of purchase and confirmation from POW that i'm the registered owner. I'm looking for £1800.
Let me know if you want me to send you a photograph via email.

Kind Regards
Ian

It looks like it has been chewed by the resident Jack Russell and needs a good going over with the Morphy Richards! ;D

hmmmm you need to add a lot of cash to the mix to swap your u/s QV for a S&S

[Cocteau 101]

I don't think I do actually mate to be honest. QV is an old classic and not that many around, most are with people who want to keep. It's all about classics vs new pieces. Thanks for the advice though I appreciate an alternate point of view.

[Zippy]

interesting thread as I would love both.
On one hand is a classic banksy image. Not sure how many are left in great condition, but an older more desirable print.
On the other hand, a recent print, strong image but signed!
Which one stands the test of time and will sum up Banksy in 20 years time?
I think its the Queen.
But i'd still like both!

Good luck with your trade, it will be interestign to hear what you are offered.

Got to be Queen Vic. without a doubt - far superior image against a very dull S&S. Why do you want to swap? The old images are far more valuable and will stand the test of time!

[Cocteau 101]

Hi tumtum - it's a spare QV and to be honest S&S was only a suggestion - happy to consider other stuff pre LA (earleir the better) or other artists with prints of similar stature.

[Cocteau 101]

Had a couple of interesting offers - keep them coming.

[They call me Stephen]

i love looking at the older banksy prints in the 'post your banksy' thread. As lovely as alot of the newer prints are there's something about the older ones. They'll definately stand the test of time in my opinion. Queen Victoria, any of the rats, weston supermare...so simple yet striking.

I missed out on a S&S and would love to get my hands on one but would choose an older print any day of the week over it.

[hypovalaemic]

Have to admit my collection is now heading towards picking up older unsigned classics rather than newer signed. Having said that it comes down to preference. I picked up an unsigned Napalm last week - well chuffed! Good luck with the search.

[Run Pig Run]

[scavos]

QV is a classic print. Good luck in getting the SOS cocteau101.

[Cocteau 101]

Thanks mate - had some decent offers that I'm considering.

[stuey09]

I'll throw in the fucking clock as well
