Somewhere on eBay a Leeds-era Ben Wade has been fitted with a copper ring and mesh screen to make it suitable for "cannabis consumption". I honestly never thought I'd see the day.
No surprise here, we haven't seen a 499 for a while (typically one per year?).

Wonderful pipe.
Despite ( or because of ) the crappy pictures and the inaccurate description this Dunhill Tanshell peaked my interest:
Given the blast and shape execution I suspected a Patent Dunnie ; quite some beauty under the grime .
So I decided to bid . It was a gamble that proved to be a lucky ( or learned ) one .
The pipe is a 1952 Patent and Patent Tanshells are not thick on the ground.
A very dirty stummel and it took two washings with lukewarm water and a drop of olive oil soap
to get the stummel cleaned up . My guess was a lucky one; it is a beautiful pipe.
The stem came of easily and showed an inner tube jammed stuck in it.
Some alcohol , a little patience and I managed to wiggle it out . Lucky coincidence; the inner tube saved the white spot from discolouring and it look crisp. So do the stampings on the stummel.
The pipe is in the proccess now and hopefully will look stunning when finished.
I also bid because I found myself in dire need for consolation; the day before I missed a 1952 Tanshell in the rare 196 shape by 15,00
It was on a Dutch auction site and went for a mere 90,00 .

Ok, who paid $200+ for an over buffed Republic System Standard Sandblast? Are you trying to drive prices up? Cause that’s how you drive prices up… 
Peterson 309 Dutch Billiard “Rustiblast” Early Republic ESTATE | eBay
There is a bump on the nickel ferrule right where the stem goes in, which I captured fairly well in one of the photos.

Don't forget the "Rustiblast" comment shore to be the culprit of higher bidding. But in no way rare enough for that price lol.Ok, who paid $200+ for an over buffed Republic System Standard Sandblast? Are you trying to drive prices up? Cause that’s how you drive prices up…

That's the only thing I could think of as well, it brought that much because he made a blog post about it detailing the resto. Really nice Republic Sandblasts System Standards rarely bring more than $100 let alone WAY over buffed ones with chewed up stems.

It’s a great shape and actually the only Peterson I own, but I agree, it’s not my favorite finish (I got the PSB).
