PAD from Christmas and New Year (PICS!)

[captainsousie]

So with family members supporting PAD and a bit of extra cash from the new year paycheck I went a bit nuts and found some great bargains.
First, Christmas from my wife. She bought me a couple estates plus a lighter, an Edwards (not pictured), a Thompson African meer, and a Nimrod lighter.
Then my Mother-in-law gave me an Ascorti.
Finally I got about $150 extra on my new years check and got the go-ahead to spend it on pipes. I bought a 1924-29 Kaywoodie Drinkless, a Hand Made in Denmark IIs, a 4-dot Brigham, A Tim West paneled cavalier-type pipe, a pre-kaywoodie KB&B and a Gresham Giant.
Here are pics of the ones I have, and some I have coming, except for the Edwards.

Ascorti

Kaywoodie. This thing is tiny, needs work, and has had some bad stem work done but I really like it.

Tim West

IIS

Thanks. Can't wait for the rest to get here. It'll be great cleaning them all up and discovering what blends make them sing.

Unique collection. I really like the Ascorti. ::

Nice pipes!! I can't decide which one i like best! The Thomson, ascorti, or that Tim west!

I like the Ascorti. i've been a sucker lately for pipes that have that contrast between the rim and the rest of the pipe. Very nice!

I love spending Christmas money on a pipe!

 

[mthanded]

Nice pipe collection there.

 

[captainprophesy]

Yeah... a very nice collection there.

Great looking bunch, that Tim West is really nice.

Dave, really glad for you. The old cajun

That Ascorti is my favorite. It's got this whole entropy thing going on. I'm not a fan of straight stems, but man I'd be happy smoking that.

I really like that Tim West. It reminds me of a Cavalier.

I love the IIS and am looking for something exactly shaped that way. Please let me know anyone if you happen to see one anywhere.
