I recently acquired this pipe from an Ebay auction in Germany. The description was sparse, the photos were blurry, but I took a chance on it anyway. Accidentally bid more than intended; here 2.50 is 2,500.00 in USA. The comma and period are reversed. Anyhow 20 bucks later it has arrived.
Inspection reveals that it may be very old. If I am reading the hallmark correctly this pipe dates from 1899! That wasn't something I expected. That said it has some problems and I don't know if or how I can get it up to usable condition.
First I'll post some photos so that you can determine if I've correctly identified the pipe.
