I was out visiting some local antique stores today and came across 3 very nice estate pipes. All 3 need some cleaning and reaming, but i think will clean up very nicely.

The first 2 I know are made by GBD, the last one I am not sure. Any feedback on any of them would be greatly appreciated.

I plan on visiting this antique store more often. I picked up all 3 pipes for $30.

Nice find. Once you clean them up you will have some great additions to your collection.

You have struck gold , may they bring you many happy smokes .I know my own GBD pipes do . The virgin is the higher grade and each of the pipes alone is well worth the 30 dollars ,maybe more as each has the box and sleeve .

Wow, you're a great picker. Those are primo.

Lately, I've started to do a little picking at some area antique (and junk) shops.

Recently, I scored a couple of pipe stands for 5 bucks apiece (after some friendly haggling).

There's some treasure out there.

Very nice pickups. THose junk shop finds certainly warm the heart; nothing like the feeling of conquest you get from finding buried treasure.
