Gauntlet Gallery — D*Face Print Index
No More Heroes (Yellow)
Summary
No More Heroes (Yellow) is a 2010 nine-colour hand-pulled screen print measuring 58 x 95 cm, published by Black Rat Press in an edition of 50. The nine-colour build and large upright format showcase D*Face's comic-inflected pop imagery, with the yellow colourway anchoring the release.
Why It Matters
The title channels a punk-era sensibility of disillusioned heroism that recurs across D*Face's work. Published by Black Rat Press rather than his own Stolen Space, it marks a collaboration with another key UK urban-art gallery of the period. The nine-colour separation reflects real technical investment for a mid-size edition.
Collector Perspective
An edition of 50 places this in the moderately scarce tier, more limited than his larger runs but not among his tightest. The Black Rat Press imprint carries its own collector recognition. The yellow colourway signals a likely variant set, so identifying the specific version matters for those assembling colourways.
Historical Context
Black Rat Press was a significant London publisher of urban-art editions in the late 2000s and early 2010s, working with numerous street artists. A 2010 D*Face release under this imprint reflects the collaborative, cross-gallery ecosystem that defined the UK scene before consolidation, and broadens the provenance range of his catalogue.

About the Artist
D*Face is the working name of Dean Stockton (born 1978, London), a British street artist and a leading figure in the UK urban-contemporary scene. Drawing on comic books, pop art, skate graphics, and consumer iconography, he developed a signature cast of characters — winged "D*Dog" motifs, skull-faced pin-ups, and subverted Americana — rendered in bold, Lichtenstein-indebted lines. From stickers and street work in the early 2000s, he built a substantial studio practice of paintings, sculpture, and signed prints, founded the StolenSpace Gallery in London, and has collaborated widely across music and fashion.

How is a D*Face piece authenticated?
We sell his works with documented provenance and the edition's signature and numbering. Each piece is photographed as-is, including signature and edition details, so you can verify before purchase.
What drives value?
