PICS: imgur.com/a/U8JOhHello all! I recently acquired this pipe earlier this week and have been hesitant to start working on it, because I am having the hardest time finding any info on it! Does anyone know some background/history on this pipe? Mostly, I am curious to find out an estimated value on it, because I need to know whether or not I should be calling in a more seasoned restorer than myself for this project. I realize it is in pretty good shape, already. But, the bowl has some very nice grain and could probably use a couple small fills so I'd rather be safe than sorry. I have found a couple Verona Tradizione on various websites, but none that are this lucite military/army mount style. Appreciate your thoughts. All Markings include: The Tinderbox Verona Tradizione 205 Italy

Tinderbox had companies like Savinelli, Mauro Amorelli and other Italian makers make a lot of there shop pipes.As far as this one is concerned I wouldn't worry too much about it, it's not considered I high grade in most circles. It's a good pipe most likely, just not real expensive.
