[kaws20100308]

My friends has 3 Banksy's paintings.
The sizes are as followings.

"Helicopter" about 100cm x 200cm.
"Laugh Now" about 100cm x 200cm.
"Father and "daughter??" about 100cm x 100cm.

These were painted on cardboard.

He is saying to want to sell them.

There are in Tokyo Japan.

He seems to want to sell these in $30000 to $ 60000.

Wow, what great pieces.

First off your friend will need to get them authenticated (via pest control - www.pestcontroloffice.com/)

Once they've got a certificate of authenticity I am sure loads of people will be interested. They're great pieces and very big too.

I'd not see the first one and the bottom 2 are very iconic.

Your best bet might be to enter them in to an auction to achieve the best price.

do they have Pest Control COA's? Not that I can afford anything like the asking prices

[Baby Dave]

how much?!?!?!

I agree with jakek. You'll need to go to PC to get it authenticated. If they are the real deal then you would be best going through an auction house.

Good luck!!!

Try contacting some auctions or Gallery owners.

If they are indeed authentic, it looks like a good price for something that big.

[rinaceirde]

Agree 100% with brush if these are the real deal and have pest control they could be a real bargain for someone that actually has the dough available to purchase.

[Fragile]

Love the 'Laugh Now' piece.

These are great,,

I would be very suspicious of these, no coa, owned by a friend in Japan, all on cardboard, and offered from somebody with the grand total of one post to the forum. I might be wrong but if I had the money I would want a lot of evidence such as full and detailed providence and coa before I would even consider them. Also IMO the first one looks quite poor.

Of course you would, I think that would even be the case if a member posted these for a friend who lives in London and has 10 stars next to there name, and were all on canvas, paper etc, Its just common sense to know what your paying is realistic and for a genuin piece of art for this price, If he was asking 300 quid maybe a different storey

wouldnt touch with a barge pole imo. i'm out :-(

[stickitup]

1st up before we all start rubbishing them, where did he get them from? They are indeed very nice if originals, espcially the Laugh Now. But these ain't going anywhere without full provenance - auction house or private buy, paying that kind of price just isn't feasable without proof they were actually made by Banksy/the Banksy team

I saw those last year when I went to Tokyo. They are in LH7 store. You could see a t-shirt signed by Banksy too! I don't know if they are genuine but here's my pics:

[alba]

Well if I didnt think they were real before, the t-shirt kind of sums it up ??

I draw that picture banksy xxx is that the coa ??

[robinbanks]

Haha - so fake he signed it twice! ;D

[maadbeats]

looks like they were scarfing down a hebrew national when they got that tee signed

Must make a note to myself..... next time I go travelling take a few banksy stencils with me and see how much I can get from a shop by persuading them I'm Banksy.

[cakeboy]

[illu]

Yes, those are same painting. But that store name is not LH7.

It seems that these painting were showed and bought in GAS international gallery on December 2003 in Tokyo.

I'm going to go to his office today and take photographs.

And I will contact to Pest Control.

If there are someone who want to buy, please contact me.

He is considering to hope to sell each painting at $250,000 or more in Sazabys or etc.

Or if you can directly deal with us, you can buy them more cheaper.

[debaser]

Good luck, with your estimate. Dont recall any works on cardboard reaching those dizzy prices.

[kaws20100308]

I can not receive a response from Pest Control.

I contacted twice on Feb 18 and Mar 4.

Why?

I only received this message.

Thank-you for your application for authentication. We will deal with your request and get back to you as quick as we possibly can. This process is not immediate as the pile is mountainous so please bear with us.

[lojack]

Did you actually read the message they sent you?

Seems pretty self-explanatory

[fingerz]

i'll have them for £5 each

[Hubble Bubble]

Okay I'm in. I'll take all three.

Luckily a man from Nigeria contacted me this morning with another offer too good to miss and I should have enough funds in my a/c by friday.
