This summer of pipe hunting at estate sales has produced many great finds. I know estate pipes are only a click away on ebay, but looking at page after page of any specific brand/style you choose , doesn't compare to the mystique of finding pipes at an estate sale. There it is, that pipe rack or box of pipes... It could be a pile of firewood or maybe, just maybe, the holy grail is hiding in there waiting to be rescued and brought back to its former glory. I don't discriminate. I also buy el cheapos if they look interesting, but here are some of the better scores.

Theese are some of the better ones I can recall. I normally don't pay more than $10-20 for a pipe at estate sales. I have enough to keep me busy this winter. I have restored a few of the ones mentioned and posted them on my YouTube channel. Not to worry, no blathering or pipe/ tobacco reviews, only pipe porn.
