    NHL Playoffs... Who's Watching and Who You Got?

    Yep. A book came out last year about the adventures the Cup has had. I heard the author interviewed earlier this year on the XM NHL channel. The Lightning dinged it up two years ago.

    NHL Playoffs... Who's Watching and Who You Got?

    The Panthers damaged the Cup last night, apparently riding around town in a golf cart. I live that the players get to have the Cup.

    1937 Horn-stemmed Dunhill?

    Perhaps some kind of war time repair

    1937 Horn-stemmed Dunhill?

    Agreed, with a terrible button. Has to be a poor re-stem, right?

    NHL Playoffs... Who's Watching and Who You Got?

    Me and the Oilers blew that! No penalties, amazing, that has to be a record, right?

    A Potential Old Peterson Find

    No (I don't believe they were stamped with a grade number, my 1910 was not.)

    A Potential Old Peterson Find

    I can't read the hallmark letter, but I don't believe on the Commemorative releases they were stamped with a grade number (2 shown here).

    NHL Playoffs... Who's Watching and Who You Got?

    Right, the Bruins seem to be a dumpster fire right now. I love #63. I hope the Capitals take a shot on him for next season. Can you imagine him with Wilson and Ovie?

    (1974) Peterson’s 01S Silver Spigot - Detailed Restoration (Long Read 7 Parts And Over 100 Photos)

    I think your photos are so large in size, they take a long time to load up. All are visible now. And, the forum seemed to be running slow this AM, better now. You made the right move on the bowl top and beveling the edge. Finish looks smashing! You did all the buffing with that little nail gun?

    (1974) Peterson’s 01S Silver Spigot - Detailed Restoration (Long Read 7 Parts And Over 100 Photos)

    Your approach is similar to mine. In the future, some of these dents will come out with steam, should you not need to top. (iron on high, wet wash cloth folded twice)

    NHL Playoffs... Who's Watching and Who You Got?

    And Bobrovsky holding his own against the two best goal scorers in the world is impressive. The post hits last night in P3 by the Oilers, they can't buy a break.

    NHL Playoffs... Who's Watching and Who You Got?

    Pretty sloppy hockey and poor goal tending, but exciting to see a lot of goals. This 2nd goal by the Rat last night was amazing. And the guy with both jersey's made me laugh.

    Show Off Your Petersons Here!

    Wow, a 999 with condenser, awesome! The N/L stamp is curious - an owners initials? Seems like they would put that on the other side. If feels like a factory stamp. Check with Mark Irwin. Update - Google shows the NL was used only on Deluxe pipes, but no explanation as to why. I have/had...

    How would you ship your pipe collection across the country?

    I did this in August 2024 - Maryland to Louisiana. We had a moving company move the household goods. Great local company, local driver but they enlisted local help to unload in Louisiana. I supervised the load and unload (cost a fortune). In hindsight, a box of pipes packed properly would...
