The Prize

Trolleys (Coloured), Signed

Artist Banksy
Size 56 x76 (cm)

This work comes with a Certificate of Authenticity from Pest Control.

A biting critique of modern man’s dependence on capitalist consumerism, Banksy’s Trolley Hunters was first produced in 2005 for his Barely Legal show. It depicts three cavemen bearing primitive weapons and crouched while hunting a herd of supermarket trolleys.

The artwork was released in various editions, with the first produced in 2005 known as Trolley Hunters Los Angeles Edition (Black & White): 150 signed and 500 unsigned prints.

Trolleys was also a part of Banksy’s Barely Legal Print Set, a series of six prints which includes the works Applause, Festival, Grannies, Morons and Sale Ends, and which were sold at $500 a piece.

In 2007, Trolleys was re-released by Pictures on Walls of London in three different formats: 750 signed colour prints in a blue and yellow colourway, 500 unsigned white prints and 150 signed white prints.

The UK release differs slightly to the LA edition; in the original Modern Multiples edition, the caveman on the right holds a hammer made from wood with a pointed piece of stone while the later Pictures On Walls edition shows the man holding a spear instead.

In the same year, Banksy made a special edition of Trolleys for his 2007 Santa's Ghetto pop-up shop in Bethlehem. Trolley Hunters (Bethlehem Edition) was released as 28 signed editions, printed on packaging paper.
