I really love this image, happy to have it...

Looks great. I have one I am going to frame - I was wondering about the cut out in the back of the frame - I have seen a couple like that. I was thinking of just having it done normally and maybe just take a picture of the back. Was the framer happy to do the window in the back? And wondering what people thought of  just a normal framing job?  - acid free of course

It's sad a postcard is framed in this way.

The forum is not even for poster collectors now.. just postcards.

It is but near the end. Like Trump.

Good bye x

Welcome to the forum, member of 6 days. Did you have time for a cup of coffee before leaving?

What would you prefer he did with it? Stick it on the fridge?

Come on. It looks great!

Magnets yes. Let's frame those and hang them on the wall. I studied science at GCSE and apparently they are the only material that needs framing less than a postcard... Well when you have a fridge I guess. Otherwise frame magnets like this too. Looks great 👍.. please ignore previous post x

You seem fun! This isn't my only Banksy piece, and Banksy isn't the only art I collect, but I do love the image and am happy to display it. Take a deep breath, friend.

Hey there. Framer was happy to do it, didn't seem too complicated of a request. It also wasn't terribly expensive, I think ballpark $200 (note, US not GBP)

Beautiful frame job.

Side track question: Why is there an Arafat stamp in the back? (Can't see Banksy associated with a corrupt leader / murderer).

That is a Palestinian stamp and the hotel this postcard was handed out at is Banksy’s Walled Off Hotel is in the Palestinian territories (not sure the right term of art here for the area not controlled by Israel.)

Ah ok thx. I guess these are the stamps issued by Fatah then, explains it.

Found mine yesterday looking for double pieces in my cake box ( what a mess, hundreds thousands ... ).
I kept it on the box.
Very nice framing but why to put it on the wall. Mine is not stamped. 

Question : they are smaller than those in the packs ?
Mine is not stamped anyway as it came back with a great street artist friend who brung me back this one too ( she made an awesome streetart piece on the wall and collaborated to the artist making the iconic Ali. ).
got stickers too. 

Question 2 : are the packs of postcards the same than  The beginning to now ?

I try not to respond to comments like this, but I find your post a bit overly critical and lacking. Especially considering that you only registered a week ago (maybe you were a previous member who has returned with a new account, maybe not).

As a long time member and one who would often read threads rather than feel the need to comment, I can tell you that this forum was/is for collectors, artists and contemporary/urban art enthusiasts. If you want to get technical, this forum was not even for POSTER collectors, it has become that and more (vinyl figures, originals, prints as opposed to posters, ephemera, and yes even postcards).

The way I see it is its just a place for like-minded individuals to discuss their interests/opinions about art, share pics of emerging to established artists and even sometimes meet up.

If you've only joined to try and sell/buy/trade things, great and good luck in your collecting. But you are missing a whole hell of a lot that this forum and it's members offer. Who knows, maybe sometime the members that you ridicule for their choices might have something that you want or some helpful info that you need. Better to make friends than enemies.

Oh and welcome to the forum, woodey1000

RichEngland I just found mine and will be doing something similar. Especially with the rise in value that this postcard holds.

They are certainly going up in price I saw one sell for £470 a few days ago. Over 3 times what POW used to sell signed Banksy prints for back in the day. I think it’s a great image and a postcard is the only way to get it in your wall unless you want to buy a knock off copy
