Banksy Placards โข Wrong War & Bomb Hugger, by bazenald on Aug 12, 2019 7:38:18 GMT 1, Seems this seller on eBay is ripping people off. Iโve heard of someone buying from the seller and receiving a badly copied placard and poor quality photocopies of the photos of the women in this thread!
The seller of the placard is contacting people who messaged them when the eBay advert was active but now itโs finished they (the seller) are messaging them and saying the buyer let them down and did they want the placard with a heavy discount.
Someone told me yesterday they paid the seller ยฃ1200 and this is what they received below - top pic is the eBAY advert pic and pic below is what they received!! Nothing alike, the creases in the cardboard are totally different.

Banksy Placards โข Wrong War & Bomb Hugger, by E9Boy on Jan 8, 2021 15:32:31 GMT 1, Hi, just come across this post via Google so thought i'd join forum and add the following.... Having worked with and sold a number of Banksy placards from the 2003 anti war march, I hoped I could add some more to this feed. Firstly, none of these placards from the anti war march come with a COA, please see following email issued by pest control:
โThis placard is not eligible for authentication because it was not created with the intention of being sold as a commercial work of art.โ
- PCO Customer ServicesRegarding the differences between the placards (the 2 sold at Julienโs and Cornwall vs the one sold this year that differed), I do know there is not just 1 stencil / exact design, if you look at all the bomb hugger / bomber girl placards there are multiple differences, so comparing placards can be misleading as there are slight differences on the placards. It would be unfair to add 2 identical placards to the one in question in this thread, and then to compare them to say the now โdifferentโ one sold at Cornwall and suggest the Cornwall one is fake because its 'different'... But to anyone unfamiliar with the placards from the war march it is easy to presume the one recently sold wasnโt a Banksy if you didnโt know about all the placard variations. A difference should be looked into, but doesn't always mean its a fake. Please see attached picture from 2003. I know this piece well and its currently sitting in a recognised private collection, please note the small โNOโ stencil, gap in the โOโ and the duller colour red, please also note the shape of the bomb and there being a hand present. + the line / gap in the tail of the bomb almost nonexistent. Please also see attached another Banksy recently sold at auction and is the same design as the design first in question in this thread. Its worth checking as much footage / images of the rally to see the numerous placards that was used at the 2003 anti war march. Weโve even seen reversed versions of other designs in images from the march next to the โnormalโ versions and other unusual differences. Hope this helps. Maybe if you own or have seen a Banksy from this war march post it so we can get as many variations on her as possible. Image from 2003 anti war march... Recent image of another recognised Banksy sold at auction.. i67.tinypic.com/35k0c4x.jpg
I don't suppose anyone has access to a high res for this image from the 2003 march ? I would be very grateful for any help..
Kind regards

Urban Art Store the fact you think this is real and you apparently run a gallery, makes me think that don't have a clue and that genuinely concerns me

I know it's fake.
What makes you believe it's genuine?
I think the poster knows it isn't genuine (poster most likely made it him/herself). Its an amusing reference to a recurring skit on Horrible Histories. Its the best homage with a pop culture twist I have seen in awhile (but, that's not saying much).

Banksy Placards โข Wrong War & Bomb Hugger, by Deleted on Nov 28, 2023 8:31:58 GMT 1, I find that very amusing here in the forum. People with the least amount of knowledge are throwing one out here every day.
People who have been in the street art scene for 5 years, or 10 years for all I care, write shit here with ignorance.
Honestly, nobody cares who Banksy is, if you love the art world you respect anonymity and don't make assumptions, that's called RIDICULOUS.
Just shut up if you have no idea about art. The vast majority have an art depot, but no art collection.
I find Banksy totally boring and I'm not a pro at him, but a blind man with a walking stick can see that this is a fake.
Mason Storm and co might have got a commission for 1 or 2 artworks to paint or to help, but that might be it and that's nothing.
If it's that great, you should buy Ronnie Cutrone, he painted Warhol's artworks.

That kind of thing might wash on eBay, where people can be conned into 'free art from Dismaland' and all kinds of BS by unscrupulous sellers, but here people have knowledge.
If you can't see this is fake then you're either incredibly ignorant of the scene and have no right to be posing as a gallery, or you're knowingly trying to defraud people.
