Thanks to all. If I felt welcome anywhere, it would most likely be in the presence of those who enjoy the pipe and leaf.
Recently I was able to buy two Dunhill paneled billiards--one banded---for less that $60 total. They have been sent for total restoration. Was this money well spent?
UH, that qualifies for steal of the year! Any pix? And how did you come by this find?
And, welcome to the forum!

Well, I was trolling EBAY when I came upon these two Dunhills for auction from upstate New York. I entered a bid just above the prevailing bid and won. They are now at Walker Pipe Repair (Mike Myers). Mike has restored several pipes for me, and he is a master at restoration. I will post pics when I get them back.
How many times do I got to teach you this lesson old man!
You gotta be quicker than that!
Howdy from upstate SC! Gawd, not another "jaytex." 
Glad to have you with us!

Thanks to all. FYI I carry a Ruger Vaquero in .45 colt whenI go to the shooting range. And, yes I am a 3rd generation Texan and proud of it. At present I have a Briar Works poker with some Orlik Golden Sliced lit and smoking.
