They go for about $250 - $300. The last time I saw one sell it was one of mine 2 years ago. They were made about 15 years ago plus or minus. The bear paw and carved leaves were common. The stitch outline marks around the leaves are unusual. Joe made about 200 of these over a 5 year span. He had a guy that did his tooling but the guy was very unreliable, so Joe stoped making them. This is a nice one you have because it has the quality tooling.

Here's a page I did on them:

That was me that wanted one. It's not the exact type of tooled Porper that I had in mind, but I sent you a PM.
