A guide for this piece: about $26, 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.

A Daydream Borrowed from the Movies
Sherman casts herself as a girl lost in reverie on a crumpled bed, a heroine from a film that was never made. The poster carries one of the most recognisable images of the Film Stills into a sheet ready for the wall.
Best for: Photography lovers and collectors of museum posters who want a defining image of the late 1970s

Cindy Sherman's Untitled Film Still #6 of 1977, the young woman sprawled across a floral bed in a black bra, printed as the poster for the artist's retrospective at the Dallas Museum of Art in 2013.
The Piece
Between 1977 and 1980 Sherman made sixty-nine black and white photographs that look like stills from films nobody ever shot. In each she plays a different woman drawn from B movies and art cinema; the series is now a landmark of late twentieth-century art.
Film Still #6 is among the best known. A girl lies back on rumpled patterned sheets, robe slipping from one shoulder, a hand mirror loose at her side, her eyes turned upwards in a borrowed daydream. The poster prints the image, with the artist's name and the exhibition dates at lower left and the museum's name at lower right.
Sold at an American museum, it was kept unused and opened only to check the contents. It is an open-edition museum poster, not a signed or numbered print.
