Antique Photo / Young Soldier Portrait / Japanese / c. 1940

Antique This Japanese photo of a young soldier probably dates to the late 1930s or early 1940s, and judging from the back, was cut from a multiple-image real-photo postcard. There are no photo credits.

This image is in basically good condition. There are no tears or scratches, but there are a few light smudges, some spots of light silvering, and some wear at the edges and corners. The detail is good but the focus softens a little under magnification. The tones in the close-up sample scan are slightly greener than those of the actual image.

Image:
W2 11/16″ (68mm) X H3 9/16″ (90mm)

General Note about :

For all our items, we set the shipping according to the fastest and most economical method. Generally, we set it as Air Mail if the shipping charge will be around fifteen dollars or less, and as SAL (economy airmail) if it would be over fifteen dollars via regular airmail. Nonetheless, we are always happy to change shipping methods if faster (and thus more expensive) or cheaper (and thus slower) shipping is desired. The shipping options available are (from fastest and most expensive to slowest and least expensive): EMS, Air Mail, SAL (economy airmail), Surface.

Registered mail with tracking is also available for an additional US$5.00 above the standard Air Mail shipping cost stated in the description. (The registered-mail charge will become lower if the dollar continues to strengthen against the yen.)

We are glad to combine multiple items for shipping, and of course will discount some of the postage charges for each item after the first one. Please note that the shipping discount is not large for heavy items, but for small, light things we will discount the shipping charges by 40-100 percent, depending on how heavy it is and how it needs to be packed.

We ship at least once and very often twice a week, and so most of the time items will be in the mail within no more than 10 business days after we have received payment. We also always send a brief note informing buyers when their items have shipped.
