Here's a kind of shot you would want to take to show the exact nomenclature

+1 Roth. I agree with Roth. Sell them to a pro or have a pro sell them for you.
Doesn't smokingpipes.com buy estate pipes in lots like that?

Welcome granny. I agree with roth on this one:

I probably will get stoned for saying this, but I'd have a professional handle these pipe for you, as I stated above.

mkelaw also I believe "Pipestud" on ebay does commissions. You'd do much better to go this route than on your own. People follow reputable sellers and these fellows have a devoted following. I've seen many a valuable pipe go for dirt cheap because it just didn't get noticed.

Realize that we are related and you sir/madam have missed a lot of my birthdays!

lol!

My luck they'd be 151 cobs.

lol!

Amen to that Roth.

What Roth said.
Either of these fellows will be square with you and, if you are looking to maximize value, you will find that selling through a reputable dealer like these guys will enable you to command higher prices that more than account for their commissions/purchase (depending on their approach).
I would pay considerably more for a pipe form one of these fellows than form an unknown EBay seller, because I know their representation of a pipes provenance and condition will be spot on.

I have done business with Pipestud and can recommend him without reservation. He is as honest as the day is long.
