The Thrower is a lottery winners and a first Thrower sold in a major auction!
It certainly will be interesting month as there is a Bonhams unsigned sale (very sensible not to mix the signed and unsigned) and another (yawn) Forum Banksy only!!

It actually says COA will be issued. Not in hand it seems...still excited to see the results! I am thinking this goes well above the high estimate! It's such a fantastic piece!

I realise they are deliberately set low at auctions to entice interest but these seem lower than normal? Either way, it will be really interesting to know what the end prices are.

Great artist and a very strong work although I was surprised to see him in there so early. He hasnโt really gained much traction yet. Exciting to watch though

The same happened on the Christies auction last month.
In my own opinion I think some of the "top end" prints should be in bigger auctions as the gap in value now is too large. I think a Gold GWB was passed at one on line auction (Sothebys?) and the GWB at Christies only attracted one bid.

I thought it was just me that could never find the right solution (other than float) to frame Banksy's badly placed numbering/signature

In fairness to the owner it was a pretty common way of framing back in the day and if done correctly it shouldn't have burned?
On the flip side however, Banksy collectors are often obsessed with condition (me included) but for other artists such as Warhol, Picasso etc condition becomes much less of an issue as they are already substantially older and they are enjoyed for the artwork.
Just my views ๐คท๐ปโโ๏ธ

Normal cleaning etc will not fix framing burns without resorting to more stringent methods, how would you suggest it is fixed?

I donโt think easily fixed and whoโs to say this is now how it looks having been โfixedโ. Hopefully the buyer gets a condition report or at least sees it before potentially blowing north of half a million.
