About This Pipe

If it makes you feel any better about having a "?!", regarding the initials in this pipe's title, don't feel alone. For about a nanosecond, I thought (maybe) that the folks who commissioned this pipe from Ascorti might have been part of a forerunner group to the International Association of Pipe Clubs, but then remembered that the august fraternity was founded back in 1952. Though Ascorti doesn't make a ton of calabashes, the company creates one of my favorites, and darned if that New Dear carved finish doesn't put the "shiz", in "fo' shizzle". Unsmoked, and comes with original box and glove.
