Show Off Your Lee Pipes Here!
Nice 3-star (7-pt) bent billiard. Whoever lined this one up at the factory did a great job—birdseye on one side and flame grain on the other.- Parsimonious Piper

American Factory Pipes
While I have a variety of pipes, my collection experience is limited to the Pipes by Lee family including Briarlee and Gold Coast, plus the near unicorn collaboration between Lee and Lord Davenport. Every one is a solid smoker. How do they compare to the Kaywoodies, Grabows, etc., of the...- Parsimonious Piper

I have a nearly identical pipe, so I’m betting on a factory stem bend.- Parsimonious Piper

Found this 3rd Gen 1-star pot in my box of uncleaned Lees. Stem was badly oxidized, but I didn’t want to buff out the star imprint, so I just used magic erasers to get it to Matt black. Rim had no lava but was badly charred so I topped it just to the briar, leaving a tiny bit of char on the...- Parsimonious Piper

Show Us Your Briarlees
Small-ish panel billiard. Couple chips I’m debating sanding out, but I was more concerned with getting the stem from green to black.- Parsimonious Piper

I have a couple of these Briarlee Goodfellows…Peterson knockoff complete with imitation p-lip. They smoke well, but I’m not a p-lip fan so I gave this one to a guy who is.- Parsimonious Piper

Show Us Your Gold Coast
Here’s a nice billiard with clear stamping on the stummel and gold band. Nice birdseye on the bowl, too. Couple dings I could sand and restaim, but I tend to leave a few marks to remind me someone else loved it before I.- Parsimonious Piper

Those two are rather similar. I’d love to see them side-by-side. I have a 1-star Bulldog with somewhat similar diagonal carving rather than their more common vertical striations. Nice!- Parsimonious Piper
