Banksy โข Gangsta Rat Print, by met on Mar 25, 2019 16:22:34 GMT 1, I've had this little beauty in my possession since 2004/2005. I bought it directly from POW. It has Pest Control certificate of ownership It has been framed behind museum quality glass for most of it's life. The last 5 years it's also been in a box. You can see a post from 2006 about it hereI'm hoping to downsize to a WSM or something. If you want it, I'm accepting decent offers over the next few weeks and can hopefully agree on a price with someone. Thanks, retro x
With a poorly-advised novelty mount like that, experienced potential buyers will ask you to remove the print from its frame so they can inspect it in person.
To minimise time-wasting, you may wish to get the print unframed beforehand and take plenty of high-res photos of both the front and back.
Possible condition issues will include:
(i) staining or burn from the mount (even if the material is acid-free); (ii) UV light damage (even if your glazing is anti-UV); (iii) natural light damage; and (iv) adhesive damage.

I shall unframe it and store adequately
Fingers crossed that the professional framers that did it, did it well.
I know, the shaped frame was my idea over 10 years ago. Probably wouldn't go for that nowadays

Regardless of any worries people have about the staining underneath, at least you've had it up on the wall and you've had decent use out of it (not including the 5 years packaged away ). GLWTS.

... so many variables to consider.
In any event, probably more than you paid for it, more than you thought you could get for it 6 months ago, but less than you want for it now.
