Guilty pleasures

[dkaye201]

I have a very modest collection of pipes, 25-30, at the moment.i don't own any expensive ones mostly estate or the occasional $80-$100 pipe. I find that I am intrigued and enjoy what I consider my guilty pleasures. Old WDC and early Parkers. What are yours?

I collect old Kaywoodie pipes (1919-1928) and my Smoking Metal pipes (Kirsten, Weibe, Falcon and Kaywoodie), but I'm growing fond of Comoy as of late.

Old Barlings and new Parkers- the only two I have were found in baskets in the UK!

Probably collecting Petes.. I can barely keep myself from blowing off all my money on them

With around 80 pipes on the racks, and an aversion to making an actual count, I guess the whole set is a guilty pleasure. Many admirable gift pipes, one I won in the cartoon caption contest, some basket pipes that have turned out very well, and everything from economic U.S. factory pipes to some mid/upper range ones.
