From Applescript dictionary:
exists : Verify if an object exists
exists reference -- the object in question
Result : boolean -- true if it exists, false if not
So, something like:
set existBoolean to checkPath("Archives:Backup:")
on checkPath(thePath)
tell application "Finder"
if (item thePath) exists then return true
end tell
end checkPath
