Three Banksy Originals Rescued by Collector to Hit Auction Block
- John Brandler, a 70-year-old collector, will auction three original Banksy artworks on June 13 at Hansons Auctioneers in Etwall, Derbyshire.
- Brandler began collecting Banksy pieces in 2003 when works could cost as little as £40 and has spent years rescuing and preserving them.
- The auction includes two rescued pieces, such as the earliest known Banksy wall painting and 'Two Rats with Saw', both with global exhibition histories.
- Prices for the artworks are estimated to fall between £145,000 and £450,000 each. Brandler, now 70 years old, has decided to sell them as he feels it is time to reduce his collection.
- This sale represents a rare public offering of key Banksy works, highlighting their cultural significance and Brandler's desire for diverse ownership.
