A guide for this piece: about $101, 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.

Rude Gallery's Vampire souvenir shirt, with artwork by Rockin' Jelly Bean after Osamu Tezuka's The Vampires, a limited 2020 release in black rayon, new old stock in its printed box.
The Piece
Osamu Tezuka, the god of manga, created The Vampires in 1966, a tale of shape-shifters who turn into beasts, and in 2020 Rude Gallery, under licence from Tezuka Productions, released this reinterpretation by Rockin' Jelly Bean. On the back a snarling wolf bursts through flames beneath the Vampire script, worked in vivid embroidery on the black rayon; the front carries a small wolf and the Rude script at the chest.
The shirt comes in its printed box, the lid showing the same wolf and the base the Tezuka mark with the Rude Gallery and Erostika names, the complete presentation as first sold.

Authenticity & Care
Every Rockin' Jelly Bean piece we hold is checked by our curators in Tokyo before it leaves Japan. Wash cold and inside out by hand, or have it professionally cleaned; dry flat in the shade and never tumble dry a printed or embroidered garment.
Delivery from Japan
Packed by hand in Japan and shipped insured and tracked by EMS or an equivalent express service. Import duties and taxes, where applicable, are payable on arrival. Every sale is final; please ask anything you wish to know before you buy, and see our published policy.
Every figure above is taken by hand with the garment laid flat, in centimetres. Lay a shirt or jacket you already love beside them and allow a centimetre or two of margin, the quiet safeguard on a final sale. Our size guide to tops and jackets turns pit-to-pit figures into US, UK, EU and Japanese sizes, and for anything it leaves open the curator team replies within one Tokyo business day.
Considered offers are welcome through Send an Offer, and each one is reviewed personally. Pieces over $1,000 may be reserved over several payments with Layaway Privilege™. See more from Erostika and Rockin' Jelly Bean, or browse what has just arrived.
