Birthday Pipes

[BriaronBoerum]

Since without my sobriety, I’m pretty sure I’d have quit having birthdays a long while back, I did celebrate the thirtieth anniversary of my recovery with an amazing pipe.
Grateful every day.

….but I do have almost two years to justify a cool pipe for 60th bday

One day at a time, keep up the clarity, and congratulations!

Well 60 came and went for me, looking for a 56 Dunhill, which are difficult to come by, at least in my observations. We'll see, may I'll come across one at the CORPS show next weekend?

I hear you, looking for a “57” myself…. Unfortunately a bad year for Dunhill finds.

50th birthday pipe. I asked four a traditional 4 Square Billiard with untraditional stain, blast, and stem colors. Thank you Dragon Briars!

Even rarer: A model 56 made in '56

George, that is very, very special. I have a couple of pipes made in '56 but you have just raised the bar for me.

Man, SB, you are incredible. Thirty years of winning the battle. What an accomplishment!!
And I cannot think of a better way to reward yourself than with a beautiful Roush pipe!!
Keep it up!!

The big guy upstairs is incredible, I’m just a drunk that got beat to a point of humility and surrender, then shown how to stay that way by those that came before me

Stumbled across this thread today which is coincidental as I’ve not had time to visit the forums lately and today happens to be my birthday. So now that you mention it, I may have some shopping to do…

Thanks to the birthday wishes- I’ve got a few in my eBay cart I’m watching. Trying to be responsible in my decision, ha!

Well, I recently tried to finally get a birth year pipe. I have about 200 vintage English pipes, including about 30 dunhills, but I never seemed to pick up a 1969 example.

This pipe recently came up on smoking pipes as a 1969 shape 56, so I thought WTH, why not.


It turned out to be a 1959 pipe.


still kept it cuz it's a sweet ass pipe, but still don't have a birth year.

Most of my pipes were gifted for B-days, holidays, etc., but I’m good at dropping hints. This Trevi, and matching tamper, was given as an anniversary gift a couple yrs ago. It was great to see the actual fountain this yrs, although it was roped off as the foundation is sinking, but still an amazing sight.
