A guide for this piece: about $180, 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.

The studio, in five parts
Homma photographs the paintings among the toys and scraps that surround their making. Hung together, the five sheets spell out the title of the exhibition. It is a record of the moment Nara reached a wide public.
Best for: Nara collectors with a long wall
Condition notes
Graded as showing slight marks overall; light waviness in the sheets.
The box shows slight toning and small scuffs.
Grades, ratings and commentary are given to the best of our ability, knowledge and experience, and condition remains partly a matter of personal perception. What we stand behind without qualification is authenticity, truthful description and provenance, to the best of our knowledge. How we grade
Freight piece: please confirm delivery before purchase
This piece travels in a crate or by freight rather than standard mail, and may need careful dismantling before it can be packed. The shipping shown at checkout is an estimate. Japonista reserves the right to determine the final handling, crating and freight cost when your order is received, according to the piece, the destination and carrier conditions at that time.
We advise requesting a delivery quote before checkout. If the final cost is higher than the amount paid, we send the difference for your approval before dispatch. Your piece is held for you until it is settled.

The complete set of five posters sold at the venues of I Don't Mind, If You Forget Me., the touring exhibition of 2001 to 2002 that made Yoshitomo Nara a household name in Japan. The photographs are by Takashi Homma, and the set comes framed, with its original box.
The Piece
Each poster shows a corner of the studio: paintings of his wary children propped against the wall, small drawings pinned above, and a crowd of toys and figures lined along the floor. Large white letters run across the five sheets, so that the title of the exhibition reads from one to the next when they hang in a row.
A line at the head of each sheet names one of the five venues: Yokohama, Ashiya, Hiroshima, Asahikawa and Aomori. The orange and white box is lettered Limited Edition Set of 5 Posters.
