I happened to hear from a buddy of mine that an antique store he frequents has a few pipes they just got in. He sent me the address and I headed that way, when I got there I was surprised to find about 50 pipes! Many were no name beater pipes that were not worth the 10 dollars they were asking for them, a few were corn cobs and ugly hand made hardwoods, and then there were 5 that caught my eye... 1 was a Savinelli system pipe that they wanted $50 for (I was going to get this one, still might), 3 were GBD but had some major flaws (they were still asking $50 for each!), and last was what I thought was a Wellington system pipe, because the price was only $35! So I picked up the "Wellington" because I have wanted one for awhile and I set off to find the wife somewhere in the store. When I walked up she asked me what I had found, I handed it to her and said that it was most likely a Wellington, she looked up and said that the pipe says Peterson's! Shocked, I ran to the counter and bought it right then and there! I spit shined the dirty thing and now it looks beautiful! I will post pictures when I get home and can take the pictures.
Sorry for the long winded story!!
