I have two Benner pipes, one an Olive Wood bowl with bamboo shank and the other I call tortured, both are excellent smoking pipes. Enjoy your find I'm sure it will serve you well.

Agreed-- if you don't like it, let me know. That's a stunner all right! All the antique stores here ever get is "very cool old pipes," AKA someone's grampa's cheapies he smoked until they fell apart, usually sold as a full set of unrestorable junk in an old pipe rack for $75.
