Show Off Your GBD Pipes (and 2nds)
Another GBD estate I stumbled across in a vintage shop. For $5 I decided why not. I have not found anything yet on the webs about the "Ivory" line... I'll wait until I get state-side to clean it up proper, but a minute with a magic eraser and it seems the stem will go back to black. Not sure...- JeremyL

"Standard" Brand pipes??
These would be $5ea for me, but I've paid that for much nicer pipes. I probably have enough 'practice pipes' for my new restoration hobby, but maybe a couple more would be OK. She also has a couple OLD pipes - a Vauen and a Peterson that might be of some historic value perhaps... but I know... -
"Standard" Brand pipes??
Any familiarity with "Standard" brand? I assume this is the brand name anyway, but I have found very little info. Nothing on the usual sites, tho someone selling one on Ebay long ago. These are in an estate I could pick up but they seem not very special and I've got a fair batch on the... -

Ten Minute Tiny Pipes
Has anyone tried the Big Ben 'Pipo'. I have the chance to buy one but I don't really 'need' another small pipe. Owner says it's a good smoker, but of course he would.- JeremyL

Pipe ID
Rather than start a new thread, I'm gonna add to this one with a new pipe I'm curious on the ID. This is one I have also not purchased yet, but I'm thinking about it. Mostly out of curiosity. It's labeled JEANTET, which is a french maker readily known and talked about. But the stem-logo...- JeremyL

Ten Minute Tiny Pipes
reviving as I have picked a few small-smokers to add in... All of these I bought in the last week in my Vienna estate-pipe hunting. Not smoked any yet as I dont have any cleaning supplies with me and they all need a good bath. I am still trying to gather info on this cute little Peterson...- JeremyL

ID Help - I May have a Problem
Thanks all. I paid very little for any one of these, but as I have 29 pipes it does add up. And I have the fun (honestly looking forward to it - but waiting until this trip is over to do the main work as I am in a friends apt and don't want to collect all the cleaning/refurb materials here)...- JeremyL

ID Help - I May have a Problem
Quick correction - the Passatore is from Italy. New it sells for $69 for what is identical to mine. I would say ~33% I have found the exact pipe (neglecting year, but at least brand/shape) somewhere in the webs. Not always with price or lots of info. Another 33% I at least know the brand...- JeremyL

ID Help - I May have a Problem
As there are 30 pipes I didn't want to overload with pix. But I can post any of them. This is the collection. Passatore is an Austria brand. The local pipe store specializes in them. Some are fairly expensive new, tho I don't think my particular one is very special. I did 'quick'...- JeremyL

ID Help - I May have a Problem
Thanks! For me the primary goal is to get some experience with the brands and the world of pipes in general, and to aquire a nice personal collection of things I like and are pretty to me. Buying some that will make a good resell if I clean them up will be a nice perk of my efforts. I dont...- JeremyL

ID Help - I May have a Problem
The problem being I have become obsessed with finding estate pipes. I have stumbled into trying to take up pipe smoking again. I smoked a bit two summers ago but put it away after feeling too much of the energy high. I was working as a barista so the combination was tooo much. Anyway, I am...- JeremyL

I will gladly sell it to you at a discounted price of $1395. I don't think I have 50 yrs left in me. But I hope to enjoy another 20-30.- JeremyL

Pipe ID
Well that certainly is a more clean signature, with more clear letters. Very impressive research! So far they have not responded to my inquiry so we will see when/if I get to see it. But I am very certain they have no idea what it is. It does look very pretty so I may just try it out. Tho...- JeremyL

Show Off Your GBD Pipes (and 2nds)
I am considering my 1st and 2nd estate GDB's. I hope to look at them in the next day or two. Being VERY new, I welcome any opinions on these (and information/est-value/etc). BTW: To mod SSJones, my sister lives in Frederick. Maybe I can visit a club meeting next time I visit. I'll bring...- JeremyL

Pipe ID
I looked several places, including the main brand lists.. no clue, and. no other markings. I agree stamped. And either someones personalization (doubt that) or a small 'local-to-somewhere' maker. The seller I am certain has zero clue as they are selling from an estate. It does look pretty...- JeremyL

Pipe ID
I am looking at this estate pipe for sale and can't even determine the spelling of the name (which I assume is some small custom crafter). Wondering if anyone has experience with this one. It's pretty nice from the limited photos supplied - I'll go look in person soon but wanted to gather any...- JeremyL
