Well I looked and looked but I just can't seem to find what Pipemaker's marks these correspond to. Perhaps one of you knows? I feel like it must be a contemporary (relatively) American Pipemaker because of the relatively new condition of the pipe and the fact that it has no "made in [country]" stamp which I consider characteristic of many American pipes. What appears to be a scripted "R" An encircled "C" An anchor in a square cartouche The "Hand Made" indication Do any of these strike a chord with you folks? Thanks!

Radford’s used a scripted R very similar to the one you pictured. The circle C can be of Chacom.

I thought it might have been a copyright symbol. I'm no use here. Lol

Take a look at Radford’s script “ R “, very similar but maybe it’s not his? Not positive all his pipes were made for a 9mm filter.

That's one of the frustrating things about 'pipephil' .... they mostly document symbol stampings on the stems. This particular pipe doesn't have anything on the stem. I've searched all day and can't seem to find anything about these markings.

Its for sure not an sr pipe. I have one and the s is clearer than that would be.
