Banksy • Sale Ends Today, by higuy on Nov 21, 2017 21:57:37 GMT 1, ah, so are we at the end of sale for sale ends today? been repeatedly coming back here because members have found success and reported the new emails giving the rest of us hope of another round. haven't seen anything new since yesterday's round reported a same day deadline. admittedly i even refreshed pow a few times to see if leftovers found its way onto the online shop. while it would be sad to know there's zero chance left, some definitive closure would put the mind and obsessive email and message board refreshing at rest...

Banksy • Sale Ends Today, by met on Nov 22, 2017 3:15:41 GMT 1, Quick ques re museum glass and uv glass, are they one and the same or different? My framer in Lewisham is UV... UV glass is a descriptive term referring to glass with UV-filtering properties. There are many brands of UV glass on the market offering different levels of UV protection. Some are able to block up to 99% of UV rays, whereas others are less effective.
Museum Glass is a specific, trademark-registered product manufactured by Tru Vue. See the following link for its features which, in addition to 99% UV protection, also include anti-reflective properties (as mentioned previously by iamzero):
tru-vue.com/solution/museum-glass/
NB: If you're handing over cash and you hear any framer or art seller use "museum glass" generically, be wary. To me, this indicates ignorance and/or lack of attention to detail.
___________
For a signed Banksy print, consider going whole-hog with Optium Museum Acrylic. Besides 99% UV protection and being anti-reflective, it is lightweight, shatter and abrasion-resistant, and anti-static:
tru-vue.com/solution/optium-museum-acrylic/
___________
With works of sentimental or financial value, I strongly recommend investing in premium glazing.
But do keep in mind a couple of points that few framers will mention (because they're either oblivious or lying by omission):
1. While UV radiation is the most damaging to artwork, all light is damaging — including visible light. UV glazing protects your art from UV rays. It offers no protection against visible light.
A balance therefore needs to be struck between competing interests. If preservation were the sole priority, and we weren't concerned as well about displaying and personal enjoyment, art would be kept in a black room.
2. Although anti-reflective glazing is a must-have to fully appreciate framed pieces (since it minimises distracting reflections), the increased visible light transmission means that the potential for light damage over time is also increased.

Banksy • Sale Ends Today, by Boyle44 on Nov 22, 2017 11:42:47 GMT 1, Can someone offer some advice on framing this please? It will be the first print I've gone all out to conserve from the start, so would appreciate some pointers. I'd like to have it so there's no mount, to show off the deckled bottom and to hopefully prevent uneven fading. Any recommendations gratefully received
Go to mark at picture frame gallery he will look after you and will also do an excellent job, he has mine now as we speak 🙌🏻

Have other people been receiving the same number on their actual print as on the email confirmation? Mine are totally different (well, one of the three numbers is the same).

I would send them a message just to make sure.

Might be best to let them know so the correct print is registered in your name as the original purchaser

Mine has the same number as my email confirmation - as a few others have suggested, you should contact them as it sounds like a packing error to me... I’ve had something similar happen to me before but managed to resolve it...

Mine is waiting for MFM to come and fetch it, whereupon it will be promptly framed up, to be on my wall before Xmas (hopefully).
