Banksy + Blur • 7" 12" Vinyl, CD, Promo, by Agent Provocateur on Jan 11, 2008 12:31:37 GMT 1, that is my point... i am interested in any information, comments or ideas as to why and where this illustration came from.
i have an original petrol head version of this promo cd which matches this pink hand print totally except for the image.
all i am looking for are thoughts on the subject, i have never seen it before and it seems no one else has! is there anyone that has seen it, knows about it or can give me a heads up on someone or somewhere i can find out why it came about.
cheers. ian

Banksy + Blur • 7" 12" Vinyl, CD, Promo, by atom on Nov 12, 2008 21:43:01 GMT 1, cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&item=250321663269
Wondering what people thought of this.
emailed re prov response as follows:
"hi, thanks for your interest, the documents included act as provenance (previous owners stated) and provide dates/locations etc to support the items authenticity.
Pest Control or POW would never authenticate the piece as Banksy would never endorse any of his works being removed from the street.
I bought the item from an auction a few years back and the owner before me procurred it from the exterior of a building (a boarded up window) in Hackney london "

it all looks rather ill-thought through regarding ordering/ preordering blur.co.uk website address but preorder via amazon.com and when you click on the link it takes you to a generic blur search on amazon.com rather than the specific album - so not really pre order at all.
some of the old guard music business haven't quite got their heads around this interweb thingy have they.
but you can 'like' them on facebook though - so that's ok.

Can anyone give me any info to what the actual Banksy relevance is for the Blur Think Tank promo album is? The cardboard sleeve has a stamp on it which I'll describe as a Petrol head logo.
Thanks.

On Discogs they are really cheaper. I sold mine to a mate on facebook for 15 £. On ebay, you always sell this kind of " products" - sic - 3,4,5 times the real price... But maybe the 77 £ was the LP promo and not the cd promo ?

Is it confirmed that this is hand stamped ? I didn't know...
Don't see the point really vs. printing on such a large volume of CDs
It's a cool little image though

Banksy + Blur • 7" 12" Vinyl, CD, Promo, by Deleted on Oct 15, 2015 1:47:25 GMT 1, I have a couple, each unique as are handstamped (some much more sloppily than others...)
Love the Petrol Head image. Banksy was not yet famous when these were made, don't envision him having a Koons / Murakami style team stamping these things out for him.
But who knows, maybe some record label interns or Blur groupies did them.
Totally cool objects. If you can get one cheap I'd do it.

Banksy + Blur • 7" 12" Vinyl, CD, Promo, by Dr Plip on Oct 15, 2015 11:19:40 GMT 1, Very nice overend. I was just going to say, I've seen some wildly stamped ones over the years. Some upside down, and at least one where the stamper(s) missed most of the CD and partially stamped the right of the sleeve. It's a 2-part stamp too. So there's a possibility for variations out there.

I think (and I may have dreamed this) that I've seen some pre-cut stencils with the logo somewhere. Like a promo item?
Edit: It might have been this one I saw, but I dunno, I thought it was the pump one:

Dr Plip soooo long ago, any reason why you just quoted that post? There was another pink hand version on ebay a year or so ago. They had it listed as the only one they knew off, so I messaged them and said I had one but no more information… they amended their listing to say another one was out there.
