Year: 2008
Style: Urban/Street Art
Condition: Excellent

Picture Size: 37cm wide x 54 cm high / 14 1/2 inches wide x 21 1/4 inches high
Edition: Original Limited Edition Print of 299, Signed by Banksy
Current Location: UK
Provenance: Signed and Stamped Certificate of Authenticity (COA) with Di-Faced Tenner authentication attached - the authentication process involves an image of Princess Dianna on a £10 "banknote" (a Banksy creation) which is hand numbered and then torn.
Then one part of the note is stapled to the COA and the other retained by Banksy's representatives (Pest Control).
This of course makes it extremely simple to authenticate a particular Banksy piece purchased from ArtFair by matching the two parts of the note together.
Banksy Collectors: Banksy collectors are reported to include Damien Hirst, Brad Pitt, Angelina Jolie, Jude Law, Macaulay Culkin, Paul Smith, Jake Gyllenhaal, Gwyneth Paltrow and Christina Aguilera.
Comment: Banksy has captured the world's attention and held it since the late 1990s, when his controversial stencilled artworks rose to fame and transformed him into Britain's most celebrated graffitti artist. His contempt for authority is no secret and he continues to display powerful artworks on walls, streets and bridges across the globe.
This is a rare opportunity to own this mint condition, beautiful piece of art. Very Little Helps, also known as "Tesco Flag", satirises the allegiance of many people to big companies such as Tesco, a British supermarket chain. Tesco's tagline is "Every Little Helps".
Opinion: Banksy has produced a range of highly-collectable limited edition artworks which have become hugely popular. Whether you are a first time Banksy buyer, a regular collector or an investor looking to diversify your portfolio with tangible assets, Banksy's art, as it has shown in the past, may prove to be a lucrative investment.
Price: £35,000. We would personally deliver it to you for free anywhere on the UK mainland, and you can see it in your home or office before payment.
