I agree, except that $30 is too high.alfredo_buscatti":ltwnzo2t said:In my uneducated opinion, that's an ugly pipe that I'd give ~$30.00 for.

This. It's not that it's such a great looking pipe ( although I've seen this shape done by Caminetto in other colors and with better rustication that looked really impressive) but it's a nomenclature chasers prize. The two boys (Radice and Ascorti) were influencial for a lot of the best work that came out of Italy afterwards, and it was a very small window where they both carved together and signed the pipes as such. The pipe is definitely worth the coin.skaukatt":ct6hob5p said:It's a piece of pipe history. As has been said, carved in the golden age of the Caminetto brand by Ascorti / Radice. I can see why it commanded the price although it is way, way over its original selling price, of course. It's all about the nomenclature stamped there: Ascorti/Radice, it's unsmoked and what one is willing to pay.
