Key takeaways
No Ball Games (Grey)
No Ball Games (Grey) has recorded 21 qualifying auction transactions since 2018, providing a reasonably established—if occasionally quiet—secondary market. Released in 2009 as a signed edition of 250, the print depicts two children playing with a “No Ball Games” sign, transforming an emblem of prohibition into an object of play. The image’s combination of humor, social commentary and immediately recognizable stencil work has helped sustain collector interest.
Demand accelerated sharply during the Banksy market boom. The edition reached its auction peak at Forum Auctions in March 2021, when an impression sold for £100,500. Further sales during 2021 frequently exceeded £60,000, while results in 2022 generally remained between approximately £39,000 and £76,000, illustrating the strength—and considerable dispersion—of prices during the market’s most speculative period.
The subsequent correction has been pronounced. The three qualifying sales recorded in 2023 produced a median price of £44,185, but no qualifying examples appeared in either 2024 or 2025. Two sales in 2026 established a median of £25,704, representing a 42% decline from the 2023 median. Because this comparison is based on a three-year gap and only two recent transactions, it should be regarded as an indication of direction rather than a definitive annual valuation.
The latest result, achieved at Forum Auctions in July 2026, was £32,508—comfortably above the earlier Christie’s result of £18,900 but still only 32% of the edition’s £100,500 peak. The result suggests that demand remains active at the right estimate, although buyers are now operating with considerably greater price discipline. Condition, provenance and presentation are therefore likely to play an increasingly important role in determining where an individual impression falls within the current market range.
No Ball Games (Green)
No Ball Games (Green) has recorded 20 qualifying transactions since 2018, excluding artist’s proofs and other exceptional variants. Like the grey version, it was released as a signed edition of 250 and presents the same playful challenge to restriction and authority. The green coloring gives the road sign greater visual prominence, although auction history has not established a permanent premium for either colorway.
The green edition reached its auction record earlier than the grey, selling for £108,955 at Phillips Hong Kong in December 2020. Strong demand continued through 2021 and 2022, with several results above £65,000 and one sale reaching £92,425. These prices reflected the wider expansion of Banksy’s print market, when scarcity, international participation and rapidly rising expectations frequently pushed results well beyond previous benchmarks.
More recent trading has settled at a substantially lower level. Two qualifying sales in 2024 achieved £34,840 and £35,840, followed by a £28,865 result in 2025. The sole qualifying sale of 2026 reached £30,775 at Heritage Auctions, producing a nominal 7% increase on the previous year’s median. With only one transaction underpinning each of the 2025 and 2026 figures, however, that rise is best read as evidence of relative stability rather than the beginning of a confirmed recovery.
The latest result retains approximately 28% of the edition’s £108,955 peak value. Interestingly, the grey and green editions have now converged within a comparatively narrow price range despite following slightly different auction trajectories. This points to a more selective and sober market in which the strength of the individual impression may matter more than colorway alone—a marked change from the exuberance of 2020–2021, when almost everything appeared capable of becoming a record.
