Just picked this fellow up. There seem to be quite a few of these pipes floating around right now. The condition of them seems to be getting a lot better while the prices for the late 1890s specimens seems to be holding steady verses the insane prices being asked for the longer stemmed versions from the 1870s. I have seen fools pay up to $400 for the 12" stemmed pipes and I still don't get it. I jokingly said to my colleague that I would sell you as many of those at that price that you might want. Anyway enjoy the pictures and have a fun Sunday as I am about to do!
