Banksy Book • WALL and PIECE, by Dr Plip on May 18, 2014 22:22:42 GMT 1, Walking round Studley Car boot sale this morning and spotted a little girl of about 7, lovingly clutching a softback copy of Wall and Piece. She looked thrilled with her purchase. It was such a great image. If she'd had a bandana over her face and a petrol bomb, it would've been perfect.
As it was, I was tempted to ask the parents if I could take her picture, but it's England and.........y'know. It's a bit awkward.
I've never seen a first edition with a dustjacket. And I've worked in charity shops. Must be a lovely thing.

Banksy Book • WALL and PIECE, by 2badmice on Jun 12, 2014 23:40:08 GMT 1, Jeez....I didn't know they went for that kind of price. Is this without the postcard inserts or with? I know the one's with the free postcards were harder to find at the time.
Just a query?

Banksy Book • WALL and PIECE, by skendo1 on Oct 22, 2014 22:14:52 GMT 1, The lowest number in the set gives the print run (as per my understanding and www.travelinlibrarian.info/writing/editions/).
So keep the one with the "2."
Hope this helps!

Banksy Book • WALL and PIECE, by Dr Plip on Oct 22, 2014 23:05:35 GMT 1, The early editions had the white dust jacket [no idea how many] & the 4 postcards were indeed for shop displays [1 set per box I imagine] & included Kissing Coppers, Golf Sale, Warning anti-climb paint & Love is in the Air, held together by a black paper strap with banksy printed in white.

Hard to find these days.
Every now and then one comes up for sale on online book merchants sites. Sometimes quite cheap. Sometimes for a small fortune.

Banksy Book • WALL and PIECE, by Deleted on Oct 23, 2014 9:55:12 GMT 1, The early editions had the white dust jacket.... UK £20 CAN $54.95 ISBN: 1-8441-3786-4 Barcode: 9781844137862 1st editions are numbered 1 3 5 7 9 10 8 6 4 2 [page 3] Printed in Germany. 2005.
In that case Cornish Crayon also has the first edition?.... But then skendo1's link does not make sense...
Or was the one with the dust jacket only given out with the second edition?....
Numbers, editions..... I need some coffee

It doesn't matter where in the sequence it is. Just the lowest number. Some people like to collect ALL the editions of their favourite books.
