Original poster print produced for Greenpeace

SAVE OR DELETE is a Poster produced by Banksy in support of Greenpeace in a last chance to save the world's rainforests. Unfortunately the poster was banned by Disney, hence they are very rare and collectible now, and quite profound! Crucially these posters are in excellent condition, and are framed in contemporary white moulding under glass. Comes with a Certificate of Valuation from the gallery.

Originally commissioned by Greenpeace, Save or Delete highlights the problems of global deforestation. The image features the main characters from Disney’s ‘The Jungle Book’. They have been transposed onto a picture of a devastated forest, intended for use on posters, billboards and postcards. Save or Delete was printed but it was never put into circulation because of legal threats by Disney. The original sold for £78,000, at Bonhams. Whilst the majority of the prints were sent to be recycled. See less
