New to pipes any help
Welcome to the forum ! Buy a couple more cobs and experiment with different blends to find out what you like. Your Willard was made by Dr. Grabow back in the 60's-- 70's as a coupon pipe for RJ Reynolds and was also sold in military exchanges. Most have nylon stems with the Ajustomatic feature.- ejames

Linkmans Special Punch Board Display.
Thanks Gents! Yes,kinda, You paid two cents to punch out a hole that has a slip of paper in it. Paper would tell you if you won a prize. Dave,if they have unfiltered Chesterfied I would like to have a pack. I believe it is from the 1930's judging from the price of the pipe-- $1.00 The... -

Linkmans Special Punch Board Display.
I picked this up on Ebay a while back and finally got it filled with pipes-- and cigarettes. This display was never used, all of the punch holes still have the little slips of paper in them although a couple of them are open. I didn't have enough Grabow "Specials" to fill it but the guys over at... -

Rare Grabow?
davet,nice CW. Linkman made them in four shapes--IIRC. They pop up every so often. The red Color Duke did go a bit high.Someone may have wanted it to complete a collection--there are guys who collect the painted pipes. It may not be smoked. Could be a model produced when they were still... -

Rare Grabow?
Don't see many of those Sam.Your 9419 is larger than the pipe on Ebay. I believe only the Select Grain had that type of band. I have only one with that band- a 9484 billiard. -
Rare Grabow?
You are correct in that Grabows were made in the millions- but-there are a few "rare" Grabows out there Steve. Try finding a shape 91 or 39 Linkman Grabow,or a Linkman Grabow stamped "West Coast Briar" or a Sparta made "Unique" of which approximately 500 were made ( HAND Made- BTW) or a... -
Rare Grabow?
It's a nice pipe but that one is going a bit high I'd say. Not particularly rare as Linkmans go-- it's a Deluxe,not a Select Grain or Tru-Grain. That seller always seems to get good prices for his Linkmans.They are clean and shiny and well presented. I'll pay extra for clean and shiny--but not...
