Fake Neate on ebay, by seidbereit on Mar 18, 2008 10:48:27 GMT 1, It'll be a dopy question to some of you, but how can you tell it's Dave the Chimp?
I don't know a great deal about him/his work so don't have enough knowledge of him to be able to spot whatever clues there are. Is the 243 thing in the face something to do with it?
Only thing that looked Neate-like to me was the sig (so until I read this thread I just reckoned it was the most rubbish Neate I'd ever seen).
Ta muchly.

Fake Neate on ebay, by seidbereit on Mar 18, 2008 10:51:15 GMT 1, Mmmmm.... just went back for another look and this has been added:
IT HAS COME TO MY ATTENTION THAT THIS MAY NOT BE AN ADAM NEATE.
COULD SOME EXPERTS CONTACT ME AND CONFIRM BEFORE I REMOVE / MODIFY THIS LISTING?
She must have had a load of emails already.

I got an email this morning from Adam which said it wasn't by him, but it is by Dave the Chimp.
Seems someone has swapped Dave some bananas or biscuits for this then added the signature. (Not saying this was the seller as they may have found it like this on the street)
I've also mailed the seller.

Fake Neate on ebay, by seidbereit on Mar 18, 2008 11:05:13 GMT 1, The plot thickens... I wrote the seller an email asking where they found it and just mentioned that it had been said that it could be by Dave the Chimp. This is the reply I've just received.
"It was give to me from Dave the Chimp, you are correct. But based on signature to me it looks like an Adam Neate, If it is a fake signature I am very gut but I go for ebay and remove it"
Doesn't sound like English is her first language and she looks like she's misunderstood my question as a consequence (thus apparently dropping herself in it) as I didn't say anything about it being fake and certainly nothing about her having got it off DTC. Interesting.

Dave the Chimp was giving these out in a tombola at Open Studio in exchange for either 2 biscuits or a banana.
I paid well over the odds for mine by paying in bananas.
I didn't realise until it was pointed out to me that the Christmas Tree actually spells out 'Chimp' (if you tilt your head to the side).

Ahhh.... very clever! I thought that was just something on the box rather than painted on ;D
