    Holy Grail Set - 1963 Dunhill Shell LB & LBS

    Just absolutely amazing. I can imagine what they'd look like in person.

    What Do (Did) You Do

    Congrats on the DMA - - Big achievement! Which church do you play for? Phoenix, right?

    What Are You Listening To? - March 2021

    Just saw this last night on Qobuz's "discover." Though I have all of his music on vinyl, I made a mental note to listen to this album to see how well it was done.

    What Are You Listening To? - March 2021

    Tom Bukovac just put a band together to record for/with Ann Wilson at Muscle Shoals. This should be good.

    What Are You Listening To? - March 2021

    +1 for "Lights out, volume up!" My M.O. the last several nights. Notably, Traffic: Live at the Canteen.

    What Are You Listening To? - March 2021

    So right! Leon was one-in-a-million. Understated brilliance. I first saw him outside in 1972 at the Iowa State Fairgrounds, up close and personal - a smaller grandstand seating. With him was JJ Cale and Freddie King. One of my earliest high school concerts as a sophomore. A wee-bit...

    What Are You Listening To? - March 2021

    That's just the album I've had in the back of my head for the last couple of days! Now it's on the Qobuz que.

    What Are You Listening To? - March 2021

    Just dialed in my latest HiFi component to get somewhere down the road toward audio nirvana. Smoking a wonderful pipe and tobacco and/or sitting in your listening room to great music are two of the most contemplative and peaceful I have found to do. Tonight, just after a fine smoke, will...

    Showoff Your Dunhill Pipes Here!

    Thanks for the encouragement to enjoy this pipe; I only needed a little nudge.

    Show Off Your Barlings Here

    Thanks for the information; nice to know these details. There is no reg'D on the underside of the stem.

    Show Us Your Sasieni Pipes

    I started collecting Sasieni pipes only about ten years ago. I really never had the $$$ for the more rare, very nice pieces, but once in a great while I found one or two I really liked. Over that period of time, I ended up with quite a few in the collection. I'll post some of the nicer pipes...

    Show Off Your Barlings Here

    The case style, construction, and materials help in determining the period as well, don't you think?

    Show Off Your Barlings Here

    Right, sorry, I neglected to note the bottom of the stem is free from markings.

    Showoff Your Dunhill Pipes Here!

    Noting this thread has been dormant for some time, I thought this photo-post might cause it to stir and perhaps awake. 1954 Tanshell showing just a wonderfully deep and figured blast. I just love this pipe; and it was almost perfect, with original inner tube. However, it had been hardly...

    Show Off Your Barlings Here

    I should get some much better photos taken; fine Barlings certainly deserve that, especially when sharing. Bought this cased companion set some years ago. Unsmoked, see bowl pics. No idea when produced, nor how rare.

    Pipe Collection (Information, Help With Pricing)

    Some very good feedback here - definitely some aspects involved in pipe-selling I had not considered. So this is very helpful. In retrospect, I believe I may have been laboring under a possibly simplistic assumption: that is, as a seller, one merely presents the pipe for sale with some very...

    Pipe Collection (Information, Help With Pricing)

    You anticipated my next question/post!. Thanks, that is exactly what I needed - saved me a lot of time searching! For insurance purposes I should have already documented my pipes, but I didn't. I'll get out my antiquated digital cam' and get some pics up next week. All the pics are on my...

    Pipe Collection (Information, Help With Pricing)

    Maybe when I get some time I'll post some photos of some I like the best (not to curry interest in anything but the pipes themselves); I like 'em a lot, others might enjoy seeing them, too.

    Pipe Collection (Information, Help With Pricing)

    And here I thought everything was going up. ? But then again, I often confused waning with waxing. Thanks for the excellent information. Looks like I've got my work cut out for me. Hopefully I can at least break even. Several were good snipes, though it was actually just strategic bidding or...
