Edition of 100 prints (of a total of 500 in the edition), printed by Modern Multiples & released at the 'Barely Legal' exhibition.
The remaining 400 prints were printed & released by Pictures on Walls on 16/11/06. These prints had some differences in colour & detail to the Modern Multiples prints.
A thread on the Banksy Forum / Urban Art Association highlighted the differences:
"Most noticeable is the contrast of the two prints is completely different - LA is far stronger (LA print on left/top of all photos):
Men v men - contrast of main print far stronger in LA print, jackets of men and Applause sign really stand out on POW print (I've checked a few times that the Applause sign isn't actually stuck on!); but sky in POW print far darker from right of the top-left of the Applause sign - sky looks far better on LA print IMHO:
Ship v ship - note POW stamp and numbering in bottom left; also detail on piping and people in background in bottom left is clearer and more photographic in POW print; also note ship name (USS Enterprise
Wheels v wheels - note LA numbering is in bottom right - no stamp; jet fumes/Banksy's Tippex stands out far more in the POW print owing to the darkness of the sky; some artifacts of printing in runway and on far right of print, just outside border (possibly just my print):
Sky v sky - see how much darker the sky is in the POW print (on left in this photo, on top of LA print to right); also note how much rougher the top of the POW print image is:
The LA edition is approx 2cm taller and wider in the border (ie. 1cm extra all around) - however the print is the same dimensions; the photo below shows the bottom left when the top right corners are aligned:
Also the LA print has a rougher cut to the deckled edges all around - the base of my POW print is almost perfectly straight (again, could just be my print)"
