Old Estate Collection

[kanaia]

Saw this on Facebook this morning. Evidently the guy has MS and want to sell his collection. Says it's from the 1880's to 1910. I know the pictures are awful. His name is Neal Yarm and again he's on Facebook.https://m.facebook.com/neal.yarm/posts/pcb.10160299627302970/?photo_id=10160299607832970&mds=%2Fphotos%2Fviewer%2F%3Fphotoset_token%3Dpcb.10160299627302970%26photo%3D10160299607832970%26profileid%3D100000749638426%26eav%3DAfZyEC-O3suK3AUjxLngrIG9BH4tHBR-cdzfqsGLSKZneYei-jCqHS7If1Hdr8UG0Mk%26paipv%3D0%26source%3D48%26refid%3D52%26__tn__%3DEH-R%26cached_data%3Dtrue%26ftid%3D&mdp=1&mdf=1

@ashdigger this could possibly interest you.

What a collection! He's the guy that makes the cool pipe stands, no?

 

[Grangerous]

Such a shame to befall that poor man. Just terrible.

Thanks for the heads up, others offsite have given me the heads up.

Unfortunately I’m not in the market for bulk.

Here’s some pictures without the link.

Yowzers! THAT is a serious collection with some seriously nice items, clearly the result of years of a passionate pursuit. He appears to want to sell the whole collection in one shot, which is going to be difficult, especially if he wants anything like the market value.

Beautiful collection. I'm really sorry to hear the reason he's selling.

 

[verporchting]

Crikey! That’s amazing!!

Neil used to be a member here. I met him when he lived in PA and would attend the Philly club meetings. I'm was to read of his health issues.

His entire workshop was destroyed by a flash flood!

Nice collection. A few 'cutty' pipes in briar but nothing in meerschaum. I wonder what he wants for the lot?

Quite true. The ease of a single transaction comes at a cost.

An amazing looking collection, but his health forcing the sale is very unfortunate.

You thinking of Neal Yarm or npod(Neal)?

 

[Honkytonk Man]

That certainly is an excellent collection.

Just too sad, considering the circumstances.

 

[Briar Lee]

Words fail, to convey the sadness of this.

But I hope one young man buys the entire collection, and loves them, every one, during his time as their custodian.
