Banksy • The Village Pet Store and Charcoal Grill, by Deleted on Sept 27, 2020 17:51:58 GMT 1, What was the exhibit? I completely missed that one somehow! It was one of Banksy first New York exhibits in 2008, most animatronics.

Banksy • The Village Pet Store and Charcoal Grill, by jB on Sept 27, 2020 18:57:06 GMT 1, Was fortunate enough to be in New York when this opened up in 2008. Anyone else go along to this and got any stores to share? Some of the business cards I got off the counter from inside the store. I remember it well. My first time to NYC, got lost wandering the streets of Manhattan looking for the massive murals as well. Cheers for the memories.

Banksy • The Village Pet Store and Charcoal Grill, by acr181 on Sept 8, 2021 20:39:32 GMT 1, Hi folks. Back in 2008 I was contacted by Pest Control regarding the potential use of an image that I had hosted on my Flickr gallery of a Monkey grasping bars. I agreed to allow this image to be used by Banksy and it was subsequently applied to the business cards handed out at the NYC Village Pet Store exhibition in October of 2008. Pest Control asked me what I wanted for the image and I just said "send me something cool!" rather than ask for money.
In early 2009 a parcel arrived, with a note from Holly at Pest Control, a 2009 wall calendar, two Di-faced tenners, ten Village Pet Store cards, a Thomas postcard, and a few stickers.
I'm curious now with respect to what I might do with these items. I would like to keep one of the cards and one of the tenners I think. I am out of my depth in terms of where/how to sell these things and I'm well aware of tons of fakes on eBay (esp. for tenners). In my case I can clearly establish provenance, however.
I have for example the original .RAW photo that I took and sent to Pest Control for him to make the card (I could also for example show someone in Lightroom that whole day of photos, including similar ones that came before/after the one he used). Would someone out there be interested in that sort of thing as well? I kinda doubt it, but I am curious - since digital artworks appear to be on the rise, perhaps there's interest in collecting this sort of artifact.
Thanks to those of you who might look this over and give your thoughts/suggestions.

Undoubtedly you can take great pleasure in knowing that you are a small part of Banksy history. 100% absolutely! It still kind of blows my mind when I see the image pop up related to this exhibition. I just dug up this packet earlier this week while preparing to move to a new house, and started googling things a bit again to see if anyone collected this stuff or not (duh, of course people do). And I figured folks here might be interested in the backstory.

I’m afraid that I’m the wrong person to ask regarding values. But I would say take care of low ballers. Some may try to take advantage of your conceded lack of knowledge.

That's a very cool package(I agree,it could have been cooler) and should be framed somehow...but definetely not sold . My opinion

Banksy • The Village Pet Store and Charcoal Grill, by casual on Sept 8, 2021 21:16:24 GMT 1, Brilliant little back story, my personal opinion would be to keep hold of the lot unless there’s a real need to sell or you’d put the subsequent funds to something specific.
You’ll look back at that bundle in 10, 20 years time and have a similar nostalgic feeling like you’ve had this time around. Selling most of it would take a bit of that edge away, but again that’s just my take on it.
Good luck with whatever you decide and thanks for sharing

Good luck with whatever you decide and thanks for sharing My inclination is to hold on to most of it as well - the main thing I might be persuaded to do is to sell a few cards since I have ten of them, since they appear to be not widely available. And perhaps one of my two tenners if someone really wants one with credible provenance.

Banksy • The Village Pet Store and Charcoal Grill, by Lroy on May 12, 2024 15:47:05 GMT 1, These were on the counter inside the store when we visited and we grabbed a handful. I have 3 spare which I'm willing to sell on to anyone whose interested. £30 each, or the 3 for £75. Dm if interested I’ve heard that there were 2 different ones ( not a big difference, slightly different, maybe in the text ).., A wellknown street-artist bought mine then to complete his collection. Or I gave it to him. Anyway I can’t remember what was it exactly ..

It was never seen again and I think my Dad binned it 😥 always been annoyed about that one and on the lookout for a replacement! If anyone has one, I’d be up for taking one off your hands, drop me a message.

Banksy • The Village Pet Store and Charcoal Grill, by abc on Jun 15, 2024 18:19:03 GMT 1, But there's really no way to know, is there? Banksy has a huge following, so there's always a market for "cheap" ephemera for people who don't know better. I mean, just type Banksy in ebay and you'll get all sorts of stuff coming up. So at the end of the day, it's caveat emptor.
