Well I went to Mississippi for the new year and spend some time with friends and family. My best friend found me an interesting find at a goodwill store. A beautiful Townhall pipe with a sterling London band on it.
He also found an Antique store with a booth that had quite a few pipes. I picked up six of them to work on restoring.
Below they are from top to bottom.
Kaywoodie "500" 88S with a us pat number on it
Seandrew 335 (never heard of nor can find any info on)
Westbrook Dr Grabow orange spade (screw in stinger)
Regal Dr Grabow Adjustomatic (screw in stinger) found at local Antique store
Townhall 13
Golden Duke screw in stem for paper filters
Silver Duke screw in stem for paper filters
Kaywoodie White briar (going to be the hardest to restore with some of the white chipped)
The stems in no order, right after pulling me out. Some still had filters in them, and a couple where really hard to get the stem out.
Stems right after oxyclean bath, some need another.
