[lovejoy]

[wizzy]

[illu]

No its not a joke like i said i am no expert on this subject, I aquired this object a few years back, outside apartments near Liverpool. It is on a gate entry system that was being replaced by a new one. So therefore my guess is that becouse Bank'sy was not as well known then i took it to be genuine, maybe its a piece of his eariler work, but maybe then someone did copy it, as i believe no one was copying his work at this time so who knows as Jhon Lennon once quoted.

And just as most artists/bands/performers etc practice before they do anything in public, the same can be said of Banksy.
And even if it was his, would he own up to it? It's awful.

Looks like the feet were done freehand by my 10 year old son

[PRO]

[alistairkhalil]

[Karl Read]

I dont no what you mean i only aquierd this peace of street art and thourt i had something special on my hands like i said in previous post im no expert someone told it may have been painted by a guy called Banksy and his work sells for large amounts of money so alls i am asking is it a genuine one or not its seems no one on here can give me a straight answer to wether it is or not what would you do?if you had it you would do the same wouldnt you?

[alistairkhalil]

Seriously; the shpeel you guys come out with, all innocent and faux naive really annoys me, and is always the same! Please don't even try and come back with a further layer of 'what do you mean' you're wasting your time on here pal.
You have a bad grasp of grammar and spelling. You pretend to not know anything of the market/artist you are dealing with. You insult those that do.

Does anyone know if this jumper from the cans festival 2008 is by banksy?

Thanks

sorry to drag this up again but even back in the early days i dont think banksy would have used hole punched paper (enlarge pic and you will see) for his stencils. ;D
