Hi all,
Condorlover1 graciously sold me a H.P. Meerschaum Cutty that is 111 years old. He was having a few repairs made to it by Ric at Briarville Pipe Repair. He had the hinges fixed and a custom Acrylic Tortoise stem made. Ric did a great job. I have anxiously awaited its arrival as I am sure you can guess lol. It arrived today safe and sound and I am so excited it is funny. My hands were literally shaking as I opened the package I was so excited. It was made in 1905, they still had sailing ships at the time. WWI does not start for another 9 years. Heck the world was still black and white according to the pictures, I think the world colored in the late 1930s :rofl:! The history this pipe has survived is mind boggling to me. Ahh but how does it smoke you ask, like a dream! So far the little bugger has devoured a bowl of Peterson 3P's, then a bowl of SToP War Horse ready rubbed, and is currently chowing down on a bowl of University Flake. It was hungry when it got here! All three bowls taste very good, smooth and cool smoke, the draw is not restricted, the Cutty is light, and basically I love it. So below is a few pictures of the new addition to the family!
