Forgeting the edition size, S&S is by far the nicer image IMO.

SWAPIT: Your VLH for my S&S, by 13loco on Dec 17, 2008 18:24:36 GMT 1, Agree with you Wave... it's not a size edition or print matter... S&S (maybe NOLA too) are an political icons for our times... it's about a Zeitgeist, the things, the justice, the way they do the politics last years...
Maybe in 10 or 20 years when we remember the Bush "Empire" this prints will be iconic and the best explanation for our sons.

I think it always comes down to the image and your personal relationship to it. The skill of an artist like Banksy is that some people will always love one image passionately and some people will love another.
I find that even more so with Faile. Love lots of their imagery, abhore some that i know other people really like (woman and little devil on see-saw; bloke with cotton pads taped to his eyes; scuba diving horse, woman with butterfly wings - what's all that about?!).
(Only joking about the last one - just checking you were paying attention )

SWAPIT: Your VLH for my S&S, by robo on Dec 19, 2008 17:05:49 GMT 1, Yeah - maybe the thumb is like the imperfection in a rare Penny Black...
But I'm wondering if many people on this forum actually have VLHs... Or maybe everyone's on holiday... I've had no responses to my offer so far...

SWAPIT: Your VLH for my S&S, by jonpud on Dec 26, 2008 12:02:44 GMT 1, Love the comment that the VLH would be more likely to make your wall than the S+S! After a year of owning the S+S I would say that was a pretty fair thing to say!! ;D
Why buy the S+S in the first place if it was never gonna be hung?

Gawd, not this old line again. Its like some kind of religious mantra...
I'm afraid I'm more human than you seem to expect me to be. Sorry if that does not compute.

SWAPIT: Your VLH for my S&S, by robo on Dec 26, 2008 20:12:50 GMT 1, Hey sundowner. You may be right - i've not really had much response to this thread but i'm still hoping. I personally like VLH because I live near the original piece; whereas people Stateside seem to prefer Nola because its more relevant to them (and they don't have Tescos there of course). Stop & Search is less related to a specific country (though I guess its a UK police uniform...?)
