It has "Made in London in a circle with "England" under the circle.
The older , traditional shaped , Comoy Specimen Straight Grain was the top of the line in their line for a time. Originally, way back, the Prima was the top of the line, then the Deluxe and still later the Royal. The Specimen Straight Grain became the top in the 1930s or maybe the '50s. The next step down, and no slouch was the Blue Riband.Quote:

We don't do appraisals or evaluations on this forum if that is what you're looking for. I would suggest you look for a tobacco pipe forum or ebay completed items for value. Nice pipe. Enjoy it.
Moving this one to the Finer Things forum where it may get more attention.....
