    The Kindness of Strangers

    This arrived with the afternoon mail last week, a generous sampling of four blends that I’ve never tried before. Hats off to @Questionable Source for his unexpected generosity!

    Pipestud is Begging For Help Again!

    Everyone is trying to decode a signature out of that scrawl maze, but don’t overlook the possibility of insect damage.

    Smoking Nazis is best done with an artillery barrage, not a set of pipes.

    Congratulations. You are now the diviner of all things stupid. You do seem to have a special gift for it. (FWIW, your title said Pre-WWII. WWII arguably began in September 1939. The Nazi confiscations began in 1933.)

    Easy, big guy. I wasn't poo-pooing your acquisition, interest in or value of LVC's tobacco burners. Just saying that some people are intrigued, others don't give a rodent's posterior. And any time you claim to have some one- off relic, someone else is going to tell you that you are full of shit...

    LVC and his pipes are apparently of great interest to some people, and not at all meaningful to a lot more. To each his own, I know that I collect some pretty obscure stuff. When they find Stalin's pipes, THAT will be significant. Maybe not a joyous occasion, though.

    Dear Lord. Billions of dollars of belongings were seized, and remain missing, from Jews, Poles and anyone else deemed subhuman by the Nazis, and you are concerned about used pipes?

    Gah! Crocked.

    I'm really sorry that they screwed you up so badly. Much easier, low-impact if caught sooner. Incompetence.

    In the UK, do you see an MD as your primary healthcare provider?

    Gah! Crocked.

    Cause? Lay off smoking until well after you are better.
