Good luck to everyone who's going for this... it's pretty nice, but a little out of my price range.

There has been discussion elsewhere as to whether the screenprint will have the grass detail similiar to the outside installation.

Personally I'd be happier without...

Thoughts?

outside of 10 prints that will have hand painted splash marks, will this whole thing only be screenprinted? I just wonder how the white umbrella will hold against the beams of color and if any of the color will be seen thru the umbrella. For $300+ dollars, it better not!
I really wish artists would release photos of the prints b4 the sales, rather than some computer mock up

From Banksyforum:

The wait is over, my new print Not Everything Is So Black & White will be released this Friday at 3pm only at eelus.com. I just want to say a massive thank you to everyone who has waited so patiently for this print to drop. It was vital that the production wasn't rushed in any way, so you may have waited longer than expected, but you can be assured that you're getting the absolute best quality print I could possibly offer.
Just to remind you, the edition size is 120, screen printed with 22 beautiful colours, all for the price of £210 + p&p. There will also be a super exclusive, VERY limited hand finished edition online at the same time. To make sure there are no mistakes with overselling, there will be a small safety buffer in place with the stock levels on the site, so if you see a 'stock level low' message, then just give it a minute and try again.
I've been totally overwhelmed with the response and anticipation for this print release and I'm trying my best to reply to everyone who has been asking for more info. I'm still just one guy in a small room trying to hold all this down and with my upcoming show in NYC racing ever closer, it's proving hard to get round to answering everybody as there's just so much other work to be done. So apologies if I haven't gotten back to you just yet.

The print will NOT have the green grass at the bottom.

Not that I don't believe you, but where was this confirmed?

I wonder how many other people are going to be going for this at the Deer Creek (Verizon Wireless) campsite

Codeblue · Wed Aug 11, 2010 5:50 pm

Better not forget to set the alarm clock!

This is straight from Eelus-

On the hand finished edition, the splats and splashes coming off the top of the umbrella are applied by hand and not screen printed like the normal edition.

FYI - I do not think this needs hype.

It was confirmed somewhere. I thought the Banksy board but I can't find it.

Guess you'll just have to take my word for it for now.

Will do. Thanks. Looks like a good number of people on the Banksy board are going for this too. And one mentioned F5 wouldn't work because Eelus' site is flash. This is going to be an interesting drop. I skipped the DD prints at G1988 to save money for this one. Fingers crossed.
