WTB: GIRL WITH (RED) BALLOON: SERIOUS ONLY, by Warm Gun on Feb 6, 2011 12:40:01 GMT 1, There is an unsigned on ebay for £5k at the moment. That price almost seems reasonable seeing how rarely they come up for sale.

Agree, been offered 3.5K and 3.8K for mine since I posted a picture of it on another thread. Peeps certainly hold on to this one!

WTB: GIRL WITH (RED) BALLOON: SERIOUS ONLY, by anewspace on Feb 6, 2011 13:18:36 GMT 1, I have an original of one of these for sale too but its one of those images that people love and keep so the print rarely comes up for sale. Also I often think its such a "girlie" image that its the easiest for people to have in the front room. Alot of girl friends have made their fellas sell Rude Copper(in particular with the fuckers spray) and Napalm (in particular when kids arrive, I have been a victim of this!)

It's always been close to the top of the stack price wise, happy I got one a couple of years ago. It's in a relatively crap frame and on the list to get the sort of frame job it deserves. One of the small list of Banksy's my gf actually likes

WTB: GIRL WITH (RED) BALLOON: SERIOUS ONLY, by colinfishwick on Feb 6, 2011 16:35:19 GMT 1, nail on the head here, it's a very woman friendly image so will always be the last one out of the door when the family silver gets cashed!!
i really like it but not enough to cough up, i've downloaded the jpeg from Banksy's site with a view to putting it on a little canvas - and saved myself £4K+ in the process ;-)
BTW anyone see the signed one Andipa had when they did that Banksy show - in the print shop up the road from the gallery? was in awful condition, rippled/cockled to hell and they wanted £12K for it - which they probably got back then too!!

WTB: GIRL WITH (RED) BALLOON: SERIOUS ONLY, by naughtyshorty on Feb 7, 2011 2:58:03 GMT 1, seems like we are all with the same woman! Craigf, my GWB came in a horrific black, thin, metal frame, with a black mount. looked awful. switched it up to a simple black box frame and white mount and it looks unreal. was even saying last night how much better it looked. Likewise, mrs naughtyshorty says the v same thing about the print being the only one she likes..
funnily enough, i was making that same point in the NBG queue. someone turned round to me and said "well u want to get another girlfriend then dont u". still makes me smile now..

WTB: GIRL WITH (RED) BALLOON: SERIOUS ONLY, by plusvivacity on Feb 9, 2011 3:15:44 GMT 1, Anyone know the common condition of GWRB prints? I have been told with this specific print most seem to have "slight rolling marks". Anyone notice this on theirs?

When i bought mine, it had been kept in the tube for about 2 years, and yes, it does have slight rolling marks. It used to bother me, but not anymore. A local art and paper restorer who I've used before said she could easily remove the creases for about £40. Process involves floating the print on water, and drying it very slowly between acid free tissue in a press. Takes about 2 weeks in total..

WTB: GIRL WITH (RED) BALLOON: SERIOUS ONLY, by colinfishwick on Feb 9, 2011 19:52:38 GMT 1, this thread is going to piss so many people off!! ;D
some nice frames there - keep 'em coming
with regard to the rippling/cockling, i've seen it in varying degrees with this print but none worse than the signed one Andipa had up for sale a while back!
i'm sure it's easily fixed, restorers can do magic with paper so i'd haggle for a discount but wouldn't be overly put off by it.

WTB: GIRL WITH (RED) BALLOON: SERIOUS ONLY, by Martin M on Feb 11, 2011 13:46:59 GMT 1, Now that's how to frame GWB, nice one naughtyshorty. I have recently been offered a signed one of these that I am tempted by, I went to see it and was surprised how off white the paper is, almost yellowish. Is this normal with this print or has this one just been stuck in a window. I have seen one before that i seem to remember was off white. Be interested to know some info from one of you lucky owners, thanks.

Off white = yes
Yellowish..... sounds like it could be an issue, but I'd need to see it to be able to know if its much different to mine

WTB: GIRL WITH (RED) BALLOON: SERIOUS ONLY, by brut on Feb 11, 2011 15:09:07 GMT 1, I have had this beauty since summer 2005.I purchased it direct from POW & can confirm it is off white.If you put a white mount board up against it you can clearly see the difference. I also purchased the green winged version of dog face the queen by dface at the same time.Hard to believe now that the order only came to £150!!
