I wonder why he just doesn't release an open edition print and give all proceeds to Ukraine instead of a small edition of 50. I'm guessing it's because he's protecting his own market value.

Every time Banksy (or any other sought after artist ) does something for charity, there is always someone to suggest he should do something where "we all get a print"...honestly the argument is tired and weak
Dude made some cool well placed stencils, post office of war torn country can make money out of it...that's more than enough

When you say, “just going into a war zone” - let’s be honest- none of us would want any loved one have to experience a war zone. It does take a good amount of courage to go into this environment without any military or security support.
You say “it doesn’t accomplish anything…”, but I would argue the contrary, many Ukrainians have been uplifted by the show of support. It has reached a massive worldwide audience of people, a proportion of whom had started to fatigue from the news cycle on this important issue. It is now being used to raise money for the country.
Banksy is arguably the leading redemptive figure in the art world right now…

For the boxsets, I thought you only could buy them on-site except for a short period of time where they were available on the website.

Banksy is arguably the leading redemptive figure in the art world right now… Yeah, I definitely do not have the courage to go into any type of war zone. Kudos to him for the visit. But more kudos go to those who are living in the war zone.
You mention that many Ukrainians have been uplifted by the show of support. Not being combative, but how was the evidenced? Was there a poll conducted to show that?
If my country was invaded and banksy came over to paint something on the rubble, I think I would be annoyed by the exploitation. But then again I'm a Larry David type curmudgeon.
This just doesn't seem like an effective way to raise money for Ukraine. I would imagine that only a limited number of people will be buying these stamps. Flippers and stamp collectors, can't be that many of them can there?

Banksy Stamps release @ Ukraine, by thrash822 on Feb 27, 2023 20:55:30 GMT 1, 4,000 orders of stamps in the last hour alone. Just understand that all of these items will sell out eventually. Probably sooner than you'd think. 250 , 000 sets x $5 USD = Over $1 million bucks. That's not including sales from the other 2 items. Just making a point, this is a great cause to support and yes, it does make a difference!

Just because a person has an alternative viewpoint doesn't mean that they're a troll or some sort of paid-for commenter. That's the problem these days. You can't have a conversation. If you present a slightly different idea, you're attacked.

Don’t think it’s increased his current market value. Print market is still pretty flacid.

Banksy Stamps release @ Ukraine, by Lroy on Feb 27, 2023 21:32:36 GMT 1, Joe Brooks posted it on her Insta tagging Banksy. It's official now ( that's why we saw the copyright on the right of the stamps ). Maybe Ukrainian post office or I don't know who, took contact with Banksy about these stamps. Of course it's the Ukrainian poste office and the money will go to UKraine for sure ! Could we say it's a Banksy ? Yes, why not as he painted the wall and officially wrote the copyright! Putin must be furious : if you go on Twitter the TT adn # searching are " Banksy" , " Banksy stamps " and all the mondial media and newpapers are tweeting about this Judoka stamp ! La chute ! Well done Ukraine and Banksy ! Turkey ? we will see. Here, as for Palistine, Banksy passed his political art message, and made arts in these countries occupied by the power and the force of destructive machines. I don't know who talked about " tats " and "pathetics ", he should know that it's another version now. And what the difference between a postcard, a flyer ? etc etc... This image on the stamp is great, very classy colors !
