[Cocteau 101]

Changing the collection around a little and considering swapping this for something of equal stature, early signed Banksy's considered with solid prov or originals of similar stature.

This is a piece that Adam gave to a journalist to be used as the potential front cover of a book. Adam confirmed this personally to me at Elms Lesters and I also have provenance from the journalist in question.

Framed in a beautifully made perspex box frame by Gary MrFrameman.

Feel free to make offers -

swap it for a parla book cocteau?

[nacional]

To get a grip on this, what kind of trade price are you putting on it.....

[Cocteau 101]

More than a street less than a gallery!

[nacional]

Are you thinking /10 Soup can early Banksy or HMV /150 (or whatever it was) early banksy

[Cocteau 101]

Nacional, I'm thinking an early special Banksy, all offers considered or a combination of prints.

Cocteau, its a lovely piece.
I'm interested in the framing... looking at the icture of the reverse, are the bolts/screws going through the actual cardboard or if not, how is it held in place?

[Cocteau 101]

Zippy as if ;D

Do you think I am a philistine, it's immacutely framed to Garys usual high standards, I'll get the exact spec from him for clarity.

Dear Dear ;D

[Zippy]

Shame on me for even doubting you!
Nothing personal but from the piccy I couldnt see what is holding the piece in place!!
Its a stunning Neate and I hope you get some great offers in.

PS. I still have my London Police canvas ....!!!

Jopkop is selling his canvas for 9k - and I bet he would accept less . I think 3-5k seems about right - or am I wrong?

A lovely pizza box sold for £3.7k ish on eBay the other day for an idea of price.

[Cocteau 101]

Sorry Richard you are wrong, To be clear I've been offered over £8k for this to date, trades considered otherwise it stays in the collection for future years.

[graeme501]

i agree, a lovely neate piece that fits between street and gallery prices

[Cocteau 101]

Thanks for the offers but nothing comcrete as yet.

[Deleted]

Good luck Cocteau.. you'll get loads of offers

[worlddomination]

What size is the piece please?

[Cocteau 101]

I'll measure it and post up size later - decent size though.

[Cocteau 101]

Offers still being considered of early signed Banksy's.
