Here’s my latest acquisition. I actually never thought it would happen. I’ll post more pics when the pipes arrive.

@ssjones can you please move this thread to the appropriate forum category. I think it is supposed to be under Pipes for sale

Fantastic set Ash!! Rare find indeed

Good one Ahi ka! I have a feeling Ash just might be hanging onto those hens teeth. An LB And LBS in your birthyear, and early 60's era - yeah, that's gold right there. How did you find the set?

Outstanding Looking Set! They look fresher than I do at 57!

Nice Ash. Do they have anything in meerschaum?

That’s an interesting story. I purchased my 1900 Cased Spigot Loewe from an eBay vendor and we’ve hit it off.

He emailed the other day asking if I was interested in this set, he had zero knowledge of my birth year.

I essentially dislocated arm hitting the reply button and transferring the money.

Here’s the initial single photo that I based my purchase on.

I've had that experience with a few eBay sellers. Some of my favorite pipes were bought that way.

That's a beautiful set! Enjoy them in the best of health.
