That’s one cool looking pipe!This pipe was special - I expected it to go in the $1K range despite condition issues. You just don't see Dunhill figurals often, and especially Vercingetorix. As a Vercingetorix collector I was bummed to not be able to participate, but the new car takes priority (never thought I'd say that).
Dunhill Figural on ebay
Which one? I have two of them.
The one I got from Ken Barnes would get into the low four figures, but 19th century pipes don't get the lofty prices that 20th century pipes get.
It was definitely a shocker for me.
I looked at the bidding history and the winners were all solid bidders, none of those creeps with a hundred or more bid retractions who bid only to reveal what maximums other bidders are offering and then retracting their bids.
One of these did have a couple of retractions at around the $800 mark but otherwise the bidding was clean.
That (spectacular) Ken Barnes one. There can't be another of those around.
I think you may be underestimating its worth - just on the prices fetched by a Dunhill magnum recently, and those cased Barlings
From your lips to my beneficiaries' ears.
Wow, not seeing that Author saved me $3k. That one would have been tough explaining to Mrs. Jones.Holy crap Batman! Some impressive prices on cased Barlings!

Bummer. I was wondering why it was relisted."Can you please cancel. This was supposed to be auction not a buy it now. I made a mistake I apologize for inconvenience. Thank you"
I am not sure how I missed it, but late is just as good as 'on time' in this case
Congrats - that's a nice-looking little pipe!I scored this Comoy's Tradition for a modest $53....

Sometimes something comes along that I find intriguing, especially if it's a Barling designation that I've never seen before. I can't decide whether I like or dislike the looks of this pipe but it's certainly an odd looking little cuss. I think what caught my attention was that it's called a Barling Unique. Horry Jameson, who carved FREAK pipes for Barling in the 1920's and went on to carve a great many of their quaints, left Barling to create his own line for GBD, also called Unique. So the Unique appellation conjures up pleasant associations for me and I figured that I'd make a bid on it if it didn't cost too much.
Here's the pipe and you can see what I paid for it. Weird looking thing, innit?

Likely early 1970's, from when Imperial Tobacco outsourced Barling manufacture to Cadogan and to Charatan. I'd love to know the reasoning. Was it Imperial responding to the GBD uniques?
That would be interesting to learn the behind the scenes. I doubt the GBD Uniques were that successful that they were to be copied?
As far as I know, the GBD Uniques weren’t a big deal, but Imperial was trying out various ideas to build market so maybe they thought this might be worth trying.
