A guide for this piece: about $62, 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 screen painting to wear
Where most souvenir jackets speak in thread, this one speaks in pigment, and the result has the hush of a folding screen: cranes under a moon, a carp breaking water, a dragon you notice only on second look. The olive and sage palette keeps it wearable far beyond the souvenir crowd.
Best for: Designer sukajan collectors; relaxed, roomy fit
Condition notes
Some signs of wear with light marks; soft creasing to the satin sleeves. Print clear and complete.

A souvenir jacket from LAD MUSICIAN, reference 2224-354, cut in olive rayon and cotton and printed edge to edge with a moonlit scene of cranes, a leaping carp and a dragon half hidden in the ground. Sage satin raglan sleeves. Tagged 44.
The Piece
The back reads like a painted screen. Two red-crowned cranes wheel beneath a pale grey moon, a dark carp rises from a white splash of water, and a dragon drawn in tonal olive coils through the left side, visible only as the light moves. Pale yellow blossoms, bamboo leaves and a scatter of tiny white specks complete the picture, and the same scene continues across the front, divided by the zip.
The sleeves are plain sage satin set in a raglan line, and striped rib in olive and grey closes the collar, cuffs and hem. LAD MUSICIAN, the Tokyo label of designer Takashi Kurokawa, is known for rock-inflected tailoring, and here it turns the post-war Yokosuka souvenir jacket into a printed picture rather than an embroidered one.
