A guide for this piece: about $54, 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.

Two journeys, one coat
One face is a postcard of the whole archipelago, Sapporo to Kagoshima, guarded by a dragon and Fuji; the other is pure garage folklore, a grinning rider on a chopper. That swing between souvenir map and hot-rod cartoon is exactly what makes a reversible sukajan worth owning. In a small size it suits a close, cropped fit.
Best for: Tailor Toyo collectors; smaller frames wanting two jackets in one
Condition notes
Light signs of wear. A few tiny holes along the back raglan seam by the collar on the black face; faint scuffs on the black shoulder; small specks near one gold cuff. Embroidery full and bright.

A reversible Tailor Toyo souvenir jacket, reference TT11041: black satin with a full map of Japan, a dragon and Mount Fuji on one face, brown and gold satin with a Choppers motorcycle scene on the other. Tagged S.
The Piece
The black back leads. Japan arcs across the shoulders in gold script; below it the islands are traced in cream thread from Sapporo to Kagoshima, each city named, with a green dragon along the western coast, Mount Fuji under snow, clouds and blossom. Twin dragons rise through cloud and flame on the black front.
Reversed, CHOPPERS runs in red over a grinning rider on a blue motorcycle in full colour. That face has brown satin panels, gold sleeves with a brown stripe, an eagle on one chest and a skull and crossbones flag on the other.
Tailor Toyo, whose label reads Hand Embroidery beneath a torii gate and Mount Fuji, is the name most closely tied to the souvenir jacket in Japan.
