    Boswell Pipes

    I’ve not smoked a Boswell but I’ve been to the shop many times and browse d their wares. I find them to be a little clunky in design. Not really my cup of tea.

    The Eagle Has Landed (Or Instant Cellaring)

    If I can ask, why did you order from outside the US? Were there specific blends you were hoping to sample? I only ask because prices are generally so much higher from europe.

    thanks for the recommendation of pipephil.eu. All i find there is reference to Made in England Comoys for Middleton. And Comoy's shape 63 doesnt correspond to this pipe. Still looking.

    Need Identification Help

    I'm trying to identify the maker of a John Middleton pipe that was purchased in February of 1943. Markings on the bottom of the pipe are: John Middleton Phil. Sole Agent U.S.A. on the side is Made in France and the number 63 (the shape, I assume) On the top of the stummel is...

    Vintage WDC meerschaum

    Meerscaum

    I find that meerschaum ghosts far less than briar. Smoke that thing and enjoy.
