Old pipe ID help please (pictures)
Can you see the very straight line that starts (more or less) about the middle of the shank and goes all the way to the stem? I assure you -- that mark has been there since the pipe came into our house -- it has nothing to do with my earlier "detaching" of the stem....- nakitathedog

A picture of the bowl. There is nothing in the bottom such as a coin or such. I also took a pic of what might be a crack along the shank???? A very straight line. I will post that in a minute or two.- nakitathedog

Condorlover1, thank you AGAIN, so very very much! I appreciate the time you are taking to help, and the knowledge you are so willing to share! I will check the stem.

Thanks very much! What a touching story about that one pipe, it is wonderful you know its back story. I'm SUCH a novice, I have to ask the most basic of questions.... Does DH's grandfather's pipe compare favorably or unfavorably with the ones you have posted? Or just "different"? Would it be...- nakitathedog

Condorlover1, got some questions about your post. When you say "which results in well colored ones being rather rare", what is a well colored one? Is this one well coloured, or is this one discoloured? And is the bottom third of this one and the shank coloured? Does that have any bearing...- nakitathedog

This was DH's grandfather's pipe. I have ID'd two others that are not collectible, but I can't find any maker or model on this one, though there is (in pic 3) what might be very faint lettering, worn away. Does anyone have any ideas on what this might be? I'm including pics of the case as...- nakitathedog

Grandfather's Pipes, how do I start researching?
My husband's parents (in their 90s) are moving out of the family home. In the process of downsizing, 3 of my dad's grandfather's pipes have been located. I know that some old pipes can be collectible/desirable. If these 3 pipes have some value, I'll try to sell them to help defray costs...- nakitathedog
