Vickers' limited editions are silkscreens - every print page states "Medium: Serigraph" - which enter the United States as original prints under HTS 9702.90.00, his canvases under HTS 9701.91.00 and his block mounts, posters and art cards under HTS 4911.91.40, all three lines carrying an added 50% duty on the CBP Section 338 list since August 22, 2026. The gallery ships to American buyers and now tells them where the bill lands: "Please note that all duties, taxes, customs fees, VAT, and tariffs are the recipient's responsibility." On a $500 serigraph that is $250 in duty on top of shipping.

The gallery is the artist's own: "Roy Henry Vickers Gallery is Roy Henry Vickers' artist-owned gallery located in Tofino, British Columbia", built in 1986 "with the help of Roy's family and legendary carver Henry Nolla", and the work on its walls is by a printmaker and painter born in Greenville, BC whose father was "a fisherman of Haida, Heiltsuk, and Tsimshian ancestry".
