    Old Mac Barens / Dunhill ad

    I'm an army vet and a pipe smoker so when a co worker was cleaning out his mom's house and found a mail order catalog for the Army Airforce Exchange Service Europe from '71 - '72 he brought it in for me. I wonder what one of these tins would cost now. I thought you guys might enjoy a flashback.

    Respect My Procrastination

    The nerve of some people! Someone bought the pipe I was looking at . I'd been looking at it for no more than three weeks and was just about to almost seriously consider looking at it more seriously when WHAM! it was gone. I'm sure it was some impulse buyer who had no more than a week...

    Hard To Find Blends Available Here

    After speaking with Kevin and getting permission I'm posting this list from a B&M I've done business with. I asked a couple guys on here what some of the harder to locate blends are. I gave that to Brian and he compiled this list. The store is Telford's Pipe and cigar. They're located in...

    My First Mold!

    Just went to load a pipe and noticed that one of my jars looked funky. It's full of white web like mold. I've had this tobacco for quit some time and haven't even opened it for a couple months. All of the jars and lids I use get run through the dishwasher on the sanitize setting so I doubt it...

    Lavagulin 16 Drinking

    My wife bought me a bottle of Lavagaulin 16 six years ago and I've never opened it. I tried Scotch once when I was about 24 and I wasn't manly enough for it. 30 plus years later and I'm still intimidated. I recently scored some Vintage Syrian Latakia and I don't know why, but I want to see...

    8 oz or $750!

    I don't judge how anyone spends their money and I realize that $750 to some is far less than it is to me, BUT... After reading a thread about "white whales" I saw mention of G.L. Pease Bohemian Scandal. I had no idea what it was, but the name sounded cool so I googled it. I found an 8 oz tin...

    Bowls Per Ounce?

    Leaving @chasingembers out of the discussion what would you say is the average number of bowls you get from an ounce of tobacco? I'm looking to buy some of my favorites in bulk, but I've never taken the time to calculate / track this and I'd like to know so I can order appropriately.

    Neerup Question

    If any of you have a Neerup bent pot or bent apple would you mind posting a picture of it in your hand? I really like them and I'm pretty sure I'm going to get one; just trying to get perspective on the size. Any thoughts you might have on either or both would be appreciated. Thanks.

    Blade Runner Pipes

    I started re-watching the original 1982 Blade Runner movie last night. I watched it at the theater all those years ago. As I was watching, there's a scene where Batty and Kowalski go into the Eye shop to "question" Hannibal Chew (26:15) and bada bing... there are clay tavern pipes standing up...

    Lost and Found

    One of my favorite pipes is finally back in the rack. In 2012 I was in an auto accident and thought I'd lost this pipe during that event. I told my wife who told me I hadn't lost it; she remembered it being in the camper when we went to the Grand Teton National forest shortly after the...

    Falstaff 276

    My newest antique store purchase; a whopping $4. All I've been able to find out is that it's a Charatans second. Looks to have been smoked very little. The bore is really straight and the mortise and tenon are tight. I'll start the clean up tonight. I like Falstaff from Shakespeare, so...

    Herny Leonard & Thomas Dating

    Can anyone help me date this pipe? It's the latest one I pulled from my box of yard sale pipes. It was dirty, but cleaned up really nice and doesn't appear to have been smoked much.

    21 year old McClelland 5100

    Well, in celebration of it's 21st birthday I opened a jar of 5100 that had been put up in March, 1999. Ketchup. The first thing I smelled was Ketchup and that's what I tasted as I smoked it. I smoked the whole bowl and it smoked quit nicely. It smoked cool, stayed lit well and was very mild...

    Ehrlich carver ID

    I picked up this pipe years ago because I thought it was cool. It turned out to be a great long smoker. I’ve always wanted to identify the carver. The pipe is signed “Hap”. Above the signature is “1963”. Any Ehrlich experts here?

    Savinelli Gandalf 207

    I just picked this up. I don’t believe it’s ever been smoked. I know they were rebranded “Qandale”. I was wondering how collectible this one might be? Any thoughts?

    Eeny, Meeny, Miny , Moe

    Let’s have some fun. On March 1st I’ll be opening a jar of McClellands 5100 from 03 / 1999 to celebrate it’s 21st birthday. I think this calls for some thought as to which pipe gets the honor and would do the tobacco justice. In the attached picture are the pipes from my hoard that made the...

    Treasure From the Bottom of the Box

    EDIT: Fixed Capitalization in Title (See Rule 9) - Bob I have a box of pipes; as I'm sure many of you do. This box contains pipes that mostly came from garage sales, antique shops or someone's uncle's collection. My wife and son's give me these as do several friends who don't smoke, but know...

    Hello from Missouri

    I bought my first pipe (Dr. Grabow bent stem) and first pouch of tobacco (Captian Black Gold) in 1984. I was 18 and both choices were determined by what was available at the PX. Now I have more pipes than I'll admit to publicly and a wonderful tobacconist who has never steered me wrong while...
