So my buddy got married in York, Pa this weekend. As a part of the Bachelor Party we got some beer and were going to go hang out at Hain's Pipe Shop. It has been in business for 120 years. I had grandiose ideas of scoring some old tins or maybe a cool pipe, but sadly that was not the case. We walked into the shop which looks like a 1960's living room. There was a young girl watching Law and Order rolling cigars and she looked at us like, "why are you here?" We decided to look around anyway in the chance that there was something cool. They did sell pipes so technically they could be called a pipe shop. 3 old cobs, 3 old baskets, and a few newer baskets. No tins of tobacco and about 10 jars that were so crusty I had a hard time even opening them. It was dark and dingy. It was in a great location and could totally rock with an update and some new ownership. They didn't have a walk-in humidor, but rather glass cases in the wall and those were poorly stocked. It was a bust. Don't waste your time, we didn't. We did smoke a lot of pipes this weekend, just not there and I will post another thread with pics later.
