A guide for this piece: about $745, 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.

Freight piece: please confirm delivery before purchase
This piece travels in a crate or by freight rather than standard mail, and may need careful dismantling before it can be packed. The shipping shown at checkout is an estimate. Japonista reserves the right to determine the final handling, crating and freight cost when your order is received, according to the piece, the destination and carrier conditions at that time.
We advise requesting a delivery quote before checkout. If the final cost is higher than the amount paid, we send the difference for your approval before dispatch. Your piece is held for you until it is settled.

Flyboy in close portrait: a square screenprint by Hebru Brantley, offered as hand signed and numbered from an edition of one hundred.
The Piece
The boy fills the sheet from the shoulders up, in a green flight cap and oversized yellow goggles whose lenses reflect a red and blue sky. Behind him a deep navy ground is scattered with pale camouflage shapes and small stars, and a red scarf closes the composition at the neck. The inks are flat, saturated and crisp at every edge.
The paper measures 68 by 68 cm. The signature and edition number are pencilled in the lower margin; a small dot in the photographs covers the individual number. It is unframed and has been stored away from light since it.
Flyboy
Hebru Brantley, born in Chicago, built his practice around Flyboy, a goggled child hero inspired by the Tuskegee Airmen and by the comics and cartoons of his own boyhood. The character has travelled from murals to museum shows and to collaborations across fashion and music, and the print editions are keenly collected in Japan.
