Lucky you! :worship:
I was a member of the late Tom Dunn's TUCOPS (The Universal Coterie of Pipe Smokers) for about the last 10 years of its existence. I certainly looked forward to his TPSE (The Pipe Smokers Ephemeris), an irregular but volumnous publication that came out two to four times a year. It was always chock full of pipe ephemera... pipe and factory history, "Sherlockian" subjects, pipe show reports, pipes in literature, including original prose and poetry and artwork. In short, it was a complete education in re: pipes. I got all the back issues I could find, from various sources, going back to 1973, which was before I ever even picked up a pipe. Your bound copy of the first issues is a treasure!
I mourned Tom Dunn's passing, and his magnificent Ephemeris.
