Hello,

Does anyone have any information or insight into the age or value of this pipe? It is my great-grandfather’s and I know almost nothing about it, other than it is a WDC Meershaum. Any information or leads are appreciated!

A significant determinant of the value of these old cheroot holders is the rarity of the subject matter. Dogs, deer, horses are common and so do not contribute to the value of the piece. This early baseball player is very unusual and the holder is nicely carved. I would guess that on eBay this piece might go for $150-200.
