Banksy - Girl With Balloon - B&W 10" x 8" photo- hand coloured-Signed & Numbered

Description: Banksy's most iconic image, the 'Girl With Balloon' DIRECT FROM THE PHOTOGRAPHER, and best selling Banksy author 10" x 8" Black and White Reprint of an original photo taken by me on 18th October 2006. Signed and numbered (out of an edition of 18 copies of each border colour) Many other smaller photos of street pieces by Banksy are available in my items for sale - www.ebay.co.uk/sch/shellshockphotos/ Just in case the price didn't make it obvious, the photo is signed by me, the photographer, Martin Bull, not by Banksy :-) I have hand coloured the balloon to its original red colour and shape / size. From my personal collection of my own photos. This is not from some anonymous photographer or, even worse, stolen from the internet. This was taken by me on the fringes of Hoxton, East London on 18th October 2006. It was white washed by the local housing provider in March 2007, meaning there were no longer any left in the world! This image is consistently chosen by fans (especially females) as their favourite image, and its meaning is endlessly debated on dull forums. Is the girl grabbing for the balloon (lost love?) or is she letting it go? Who cares - LOL. I would have thought it was relatively clear, as his books attach the following caption, "When the time comes to leave, just walk away quietly and don't make any fuss". Mr.B probably doesn't mention this image often to Mrs.B :-)Size = 10" x 8" (25 x 20cm). I have deliberately chosen this size as it is the easiest large photo size to find a frame for.Solid black border or a white border. Edition of 18 copies of each colour. You choose.Printed by a well known and well respected photo company on Kodak archive photo paper (sorry but these ones, at this price, are not my hand-printed photos from a darkroom)Your photo will be sent in a plastic protector, within a brand new strong board backed 'Do Not Bend' envelope. I then add a piece of 1000 micron board on top, so the photo is sandwiched with card on both sides. Postage and Packing P&P in the UK is free for you (it costs me about £1.80). I will always pack items as carefully and fully as possible. If you require extra insurance or special packing / postage requests please let me know as early as possible. Thanks for looking and happy buying. Martin Buy with complete confidence?.
