Still looking for this Fassi...Can't let it go...
The "Wanted" or "Where to Buy" Pipe Thread
- Thread starter bootlegpipes
- Start date
Just a few things I'm still looking for:
Early ornate lathe-turned H. Tibbe & Son Missouri Meerschaums that have a one- or two-section reed mouthpiece. Specifically the long No. 2, shorter No. 2 1/2 (pictured is a variant with the No. 2 flat tip instead of the usual acorn nut, and a windcap) or the No. 6 (not pictured, similar to No. 2 1/2 but has a squatter egg-shaped bowl and a shorter shank).
Corncob cigarette and/or cigar holders. These were made with both a wooden mouthpiece and with a plastic mouthpiece & metal ferrule (pictured, these are the former type on display at Missouri Meerschaum; in 1907, the shorter version was the "Dandy", the longer the "Mikado").
The MLC/Alco pipe having a transparent red Redmanol/Bakelite stem & body with a screw-in bowl and metal band & cap. I bought one on eBay, but sold it (for a lot less than I paid, and I didn't pay much) because the seller didn't disclose the screw-in bowl was missing and the metal band was just sitting in the case so it appeared to be attached(!!!) I doubt anyone would have been able to carve a replacement bowl for any price. They appear on eBay, but always out of my price range, such as the $80 one up right now-- the bands are just gold-plated (pictured).
One form of Goede Waagen/Baronite pipe, specifically this fullbent billiard shape, this bowl color, this stem color (pictured).
And this weird pipe with a wicker outer covering. I know nothing about it, save there was once one on eBay and it went far past my limit (pictured). I was unable to find any reference for the P.J.A. on the stem, which also appears to be Redmanol.
I do not own any of the pipes pictured. The MLC pipe and the corncobs are the top priorities, but I doubt I'll locate any, at least affordably.

I'd like to find a Savinelli Dry System like the one my dad had. My Dad was primarily a Dr. Garbow man but often would be seen with his old Sav. wish I knew what happened to it.
Does anyone happen to have an Iora Pete laying around?

Since I am stretching my horizons for modern pipes too, that's definitely something I want to have.Asking the right questions
@bootlegpipes you don't happen to be squirreling some, right?
If I was I would flaunt it so hard so you know the envy I feel when I see your pipes
Cmon man, leave some Petes for the rest of us!Does anyone happen to have an Iora Pete laying around?
You can’t show off the boatloads of cool Petes you’ve got in the last weeks and play the Peterson famine card
If you are still looking for a Ruthenberg, I've got one with a killer blast that I was thinking of selling. Let me know via PM if you are interested and I'll send you pictures.
Photos coming soonCmon man, leave some Petes for the rest of us!
