Dating a Peterson's Shamrock
Hello all. I recently purchased a Peterson's Shamrock bulldog pipe, shape 998. I believe it is fairly early but I am not sure when it was produced. I am hoping any Peterson experts out there can help. Take a look at the photos and let me know what you think. Thank you.- retrogrouch

Did Comoy's Make This?
Hello. I have not been able to find any information on this model/manufacturer of this pipe. The "Made in England" stamp makes me think it might have come out of the Comoy's factory. The script of the model number makes me think it is quite old. This is another of the pipes that came out of...- retrogrouch

The current US administration has stated that...- retrogrouch

Greywoodie Pipes
I wanted to put in a good word for Greywoodie. I recently ordered a Kaywoodie 1/4 bent, blasted, billiard with an acrylic stem. Working with Nathan was a pleasure. The pipe shipped quickly and arrived today. It was well packaged and the pipe is of excellent quality. The blast is deep and...- retrogrouch

S.S. Pierce Comoy's Pipe Stem Question
I recently was lucky to win a pipe that was sold at the S.S. Pierce store that was made by Comoy's. It has the football/rugby Made in England stamp next to the Comoy's 409 shape number. The stem has a stinger similar to those that I have previously seen in Comoy's Everyman pipes. My question...- retrogrouch
