I share the same opinion as Bonhams...

except it's not a print, it's a printout of a print with a sig that doesn't look like banksy. a lot of people on the banksy forum think the person was AK47, who in the past stole a banksy piece as a publicity stunt and think this is just another of his stunts. no way banksy would say his name, carry around a backpack full of spray cans or refer to someone on the phone as "AK47" while looking like a sketchy person on a train.

Looks like the market continues to rise. The only way I'll ever own a NOLA is if I hit the lottery or buy a WCP special. :lol:

Just saw this - yeah it's obviously fake. That's why I thought 'get it authenticated' was the appropriate response. Because it's clearly going to get rejected by PC.

Gaza is often described as 'the world's largest open air prison' because no-one is allowed to enter or leave. But that seems a bit unfair to prisons - they don’t have their electricity and drinking water cut off randomly almost every day.

A local man came up and said 'Please - what does this mean?' I explained I wanted to highlight the destruction in Gaza by posting photos on my website – but on the internet people only look at pictures of kittens.

Strong work. Glad to see him taking it back to the streets in a location where it is actually appreciated for what it is.

Gaza police confiscate Banksy door at center of dispute
http://www.cnn.com/2015/04/09/middleeas ... index.html

A door bearing a graffiti drawing by British artist Banksy was seized by police in Gaza on Thursday after a dispute over its sale, a Gaza police official told CNN on Thursday.

The owner of the door, Rabea Darduna, filed a complaint with a Gaza court stating that, without realizing its value, he sold the door for just $175 U.S.
