A guide for this piece: about $46, 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.

Go Nagai's Cutie Honey as drawn by Rockin' Jelly Bean, the silkscreen poster in its yellow first press, numbered 32/100 and initialled by the artist in pencil, supplied unframed.
The Piece
Rockin' Jelly Bean is the Japanese painter behind the Erostika label, whose pin-up heroines, hot rods and masked wrestlers borrow the language of 1960s exploitation posters and garage-rock flyers. His silkscreens are pulled in small runs and are collected as eagerly abroad as at home.
Cutie Honey, the android heroine Go Nagai created in 1973, is a natural subject for him. Here she tears free of her costume, sword in hand, against a crowd of masked henchmen, panther women and a motorcycle rider, her red hair blazing over a ground of orange, violet and black.
This is the first press, in the yellow colourway, from an edition of 100. The sheet is numbered 32/100 and initialled RJB in pencil beneath the image, with the title and printing credits in the lower margin, and it has been kept flat and is supplied unframed, ready for a frame of your choice.
