My latest acquisition. Benjamin Barling 1851
If this works, the sentence above is a link to an eBay auction I won last night. This is by far the oldest pipe I owe, by over 30 years. And possibly the most unique.
What surprises me is the mouthpiece. I would have expected amber or horn or wood in 1851. But the seller says he has seen others like this but doesn‘t know what they are made from.
The pipe has been bought but not even shipped yet. I‘ll know more in two days.
