A guide for this piece: about $69, based on the 10% US charge on the declared value of goods made in Japan.
The final figure is set by US Customs and depends on where the piece was made and the kind of object it is. Many antiques over a century old carry no ordinary duty; most jewellery and leather goods add a single-digit rate.
With EMS, any charge is collected by your postal service on delivery. For pieces of significant value we can often arrange duties prepaid before dispatch.

An Astro Boy tee printed by Changes in the USA on black cotton, crowded with Atom in action.
The Piece
Atom flies, punches and poses across the front with explosions and Japanese lettering, an all over print typical of the American licensed shirts of the 1990s.
No conspicuous marks; light signs of wear, graded 7 of 10. Measurements taken flat: length 73 cm, shoulder 46 cm, chest 51 cm, sleeve 20 cm.
Astro Boy in Fashion
Astro Boy has been printed on clothing since the 1960s, from American souvenir tees of the 1990s to collaborations with Japanese labels that treat Tezuka's line as graphic design. Vintage pieces with the right print and fade, and collaborations sold only through a single shop, are now chased by collectors of both anime and streetwear. Japan holds the deepest stock of these pieces, many bought new and put away, which is why archive shirts in good order still surface here first.
