How To Sell A Banksy

Anyone interested in taking a off the wall Banksy, or any art off the street, might want to check out 'How To Sell A Banksy'. Click the jump for more

An interesting documentary just got made about what it is like trying to sell a piece Banksy taken from the street.

It seems that there are all kinds of hang ups towards proving its a Banksy, and even if people believe it is, getting anyone to authenticate it.

You can check out more and watch the trailer for the movie at the How To Sell A Banksy Website.

We were sitting on this for a minute because we thought it was under the radar, and The Huffington Post beat us to it with a nice article. We should have known better, nothing with Banksy is ever under the radar~

Banksy's Charlie Brown on Ebay

After the chunk of wall was removed, it was only a matter of time until Banksy's Charlie Brown stencil showed up on Ebay. But who knew it would be so quick?

Although it never mentions Banksy's name, ebay item number 250775628024is reportedly selling the Charlie Brown piece of the wall.

We are not sure if this is legit or not. A good rule of thumb is to be wary of items for sale on ebay that do not have an original picture, and the picture used is of the removal where there was a crowd of people taking pictures (in fact, it seems to be the picture that we posted earlier on the blog!). It would have a lot more credibility if there were more pics of the actual chunk after being removed.

Still, there will be bids on this. Wonder how much it will go for? . . .

These Are The Guys Stealing the Banksy!

Thanks to the guys at The Comedy Store, we just got some exclusive action shots of Banksy's Charlie Brown being 'stolen' from the wall. Click the jump below for more

It sounds like another wild episode with a crowd of unhappy onlookers who even tried calling the cops.

Check out The Comedy Store's Tumblr for the full store about 'those creeps that stole the Banksy.'

Banksy is Dead

The wall that Banksy's Charlie Brown has been ripped out of the building, and a new wheat paste has been affixed in that spot saying 'Banksy is Dead'. Click the jump for more.

This is not a piece of plywood covering the piece. This is a piece of plywood covering a massive hole in the wall where the Banksy used to be.

It really seems like this piece might have been placed at this spot with the intention of being removed. And, not sure, but we think the 'Banksy is Dead' wheat paste, might be from Banksy himself.

Huge thanks to Adam from The Loyal Subjects for the timely info and the pics. The Loyal Subjects is one of LA's producers of top designer vinyl art, and have some really cool things going on. It is well worth checking out.

Fascinating to see how this develops, and stay tuned to MELROSEandFAIRFAX to be the first in the know for the what's happening with Banksy.

Banksy Gets Drilled

MELROSEandFAIRFAX went and snapped our own exclusive shots of the holes drilled around Banksy's Charlie Brown piece on Sunset.

There are holes and cuts made as if to remove a chunk from the building. Click the jump below for more

These marks were made by some serious industrial tools. You can see the deep indentions which might be preparation to have a bigger section of the wall removed.

After we had snapped shots, a friend called and asked if we had noticed the saw marks on the right side. We did see a pile of dust and mortar on the ground, but we didn't notice the saw marks at the time. It seems that maybe some has already tried cutting it out, but it didn't work.

As of an 11:45 this was still up and visible. Who knows how long it will last. Hurry over to Sunset and La Cienega if you want to see this Banksy piece in person!
