Banksy Welcome Mat, by JockoLad on Jul 22, 2020 16:01:19 GMT 1, For those who have had these professionally framed, any idea how they are connected to the back of the frame? Seems like a lot of weight to hold up.
Can I please completely hijack this and also ask the prices people were paying, particularly for the Perspex efforts. Please DM if you would rather a little discretion.

Mark at PFG quoted me 350 for the perspex to include all fittings. Now I've got the framing lined up, all I need is the bloody matt!

Hi Nick, is this with plain perspex or the orange posted on IG?

Seems like a lot of weight to hold up. Yeah it does seem like a lot of weight. I was actually just looking at mine trying to figure out how it can be safely mounted. The black straps are fairly secure to the mat, but the stitch suggests the connection to the mat is more decorative than structural. I don't think mounting the mat via the black border strap is a good idea.

Also jhavisen tried to flip one of his “spares” recently and it dropped from £800 to £700 then to £600. mickelangelo won’t get his price as long as he’s got a hole in his arse.

Banksy Welcome Mat, by mrizzle on Jul 22, 2020 20:01:34 GMT 1, I made a hi-res updated museum style tag based on the photo of the tag in the GDP shop if anyone would like it. Size of the actual piece has been updated to reflect the size of the mats being shipped vs. the one originally on display. It’s not an exact copy as far as the font goes, but it’s close. It is 4” wide x 6.5” tall. If anyone would like the original illustrator file to modify this further let me know.
This is great and thanks so much for sharing. Could I also please request a copy of the file please? Do you intend on printing and including in the frame or putting alongside?

I’m generally one to exercise diplomacy but this really is just a shameless effort to profit. Would it not have been better simply to let someone else buy it who intended to enjoy it? Do you plan to donate your £400 profit to LW? I suspect not. As I’ve said previously, it’s ultimately yours to do with what you please and it’s perhaps little different to flipping any other piece of art but, for me, this isn’t just “any other piece of art”. What do I know but hopefully there are others who share my moral compass and would be happier to wait and pick one up directly from LW (with the funds going to benefit those it is intended to) rather than indulge you.

Hmm...perhaps I need to go back and have a closer examination of the original tags. Thanks for sharing!

I fully agree with this. Deliberately flipping to profit from the refugee crisis doesn’t sit right with me.

Anyone more knowledgeable than me able to advise on the font that Banksy regularly uses for his labelling?

The decent members are the true banksy collectors and will not give a hard to source item up hence the only people selling these are the ones that bought from the outset to flip . Any thing banksy related is hard to source and the market is on 🔥

There's a good app you can install called find my font. That should do it if they used a standard font.
