Banksy Screen Limited Edition
Copper (Give Finger) - Screen Ltd Edition
Banksy, an iconic British street artist (identity anonymous, emerged early 2000s), revolutionised urban art with provocative visuals that challenge power structures. His first limited-edition print, Rude Copper (also known as Copper (Give Finger)), was released in 2002 as an edition of 250 screen prints by Pictures on Walls and officially authenticated by Pest Control
In Copper (Give Finger), a British bobby wearing a traditional custodian helmet thrusts his middle finger toward the viewer. Rendered in stark black and white stenciling with strong foreshortening, the image subverts romanticised notions of law and authority, offering a satirical commentary on policing powers introduced under the 2000 Terrorism Act.
Through daring social critique and masterful stencil composition, Banksy elevated Copper from underground rebellion to global cultural icon. This original edition’s rarity, 250 in total, with signed and hand finished versions, has driven auction prices from £45,000 up to roughly £70,000, with hand-finished signed prints trading even higher.

Buying my David Bromley through HartFinds was a dream—great price, seamless process, and the confidence of purchasing through the trusted Hart family. I couldn’t be happier with the artwork!
I recently sold a Pro Hart painting on and They handled all aspects of the sale including transport of the painting from my home, located outside Queensland, to the buyer. The service they provided was exemplary. Very professional service. Highly recommended.
I sold my Pro Hart from my home in Europe after owning it for well over 30 years. I was quite cautious about such a long distance arrangement but the gallery was very effective and friendly. Christine offered personal and professional service and guidance. I am also happy that it could be returned to Australia and handled by the Hart family.- the best solution really. Happy to recommend!
A big shout out of thanks and appreciation to Christine and the team who advised us well as we prepared to sell a Pro Hart original: their expert advice, followed trustingly, was rewarded with a prompt sale at a reasonable price.
