That's a really cool looking pipe you have there.

I can't help you with identifying it but I can tell you that you will find many threads here on the forum on restoring estate pipes. You should be able to clean, polish and sanitize that little beauty and have it looking like new with some basic supplies and a little elbow grease.
Good luck in your adventure. ::

LHS no doubt, no new stem, just need to clan the grimey off.

L&H Stern, the maker of your pipe, has been out of business for a LONG time, so you will not be able to purchase (at least readily) a replacement stem. Having said that there is no reason why, with the application of some elbow grease, yours should not clean up nicely. I recommend using Bon Ami cleanser applied to paper towel wetted with warm water to remove the exterior "gunk." You also might use a toothbrush and Bon Ami around the button, and on the tenon screw.
Next, I would purchase some Ream-n-Klean bristle pipe-cleaners, wet them with warm water, cover them with Bon Ami, and use them to scrub the stem's lumen. Keep at this until they come out clean. You might follow this with cleaners wetted with anti-bacterial soap or dish-washing liquid.
Once the entire stem has been cleaned you might soak it for a bit in Everclear 190-proof grain alcohol as a means of sanitizing it. Use caution when doing this as Everclear is HIGHLY flammable!
Next, purchase some micro-mesh sanding pads from a hobby- or woodworking-store, and begin to smooth and polish the stem's exterior. You will be pleasantly surprised at the transformation as your stem becomes shiny black as you work from the coarser to finer pads. Other Forum members can advise on which ones to choose.
Once it is clean and shiny, wax it with Carnauba.
I hope that these suggestions are helpful to you.

Please keep the Exacto on your workbench. I doubt you will be able to replace the stem but it should clean up fairly easily. Vulcanite takes on that "grimy" look naturally but it's fairly easy to restore. As jkrug said, there are plenty of tutorials on cleaning vulcanite stems. I'd start with a Oxiclean soak, rinse, then wet sand with very fine (800-->1500) sandpaper, and finally polish it.
Here's one thread:

but there are several others.
That's going to be a beautiful pipe when you put half an hour's effort into sanding and polishing it.

Fine looking pipe. Just needs some TLC.

Post another pix after the scrubbing and be sure to include a link to this thread. Resto efforts are always cheered on around here.
Welcome to forum, pal. You've already found out that it's a great place to learn.

Lhs caboose to be exact. I have ran across a couple of these in the past. If you paid less than $40 for it, you did allright. Although its not what you spend, it if YOU like it.

With regard to micro-mesh pads, please take a look at the thread titled "Micro Mesh - Small Scale Selection." Lots of good information therein.

Wow brother, great score!

That is an awesome looking pipe and for $12!!!

What a great score.

Looking forward to seeing some pics when you have it all polished up. ::

Since you're new to pipe smoking someone should warn you. "One pipe is too many and fifty aren't enough!" Most of us here are hopelessly afflicted with this ailment. But welcome. By the way that's a classy pipe. When I see them advertised they are most often listed as a Bull Moose or a Bull Cap. The lower forward section of the bowl is much more prominent that is usual for the Rhodesian and the bow top above the grove(s) is much more shallow than the Rhodesian.
