Parker Super Bruyere 1937 Patent era size 5 with hand cut stem Unsmoked.

[Cantu Briar & Jersey Leaf]

I just received a pretty cool Parker. I had always kinda kept my eye open for one as it’s my nephews name. Most of the recently made and available ones seem to be sub 100$ and I was never thrilled about them to be honest but the older ones i definitely began to find more appealing. Well just earlier today in an estate package came at 1937 patent era Unsmoked Super Bruyere size 5 with a tapered stem. What kind of value are we talking? I know the Ashton Old Church is a great pipe and the Barlings as well but I am a bit stumped.

This just sold recently. Sure todd gets top prices but it should give you an indication of absolute highest value. Also, I think the original box/sleeve would have added some decent value to collectors in this case too. If you want a figure, I’d say $200..unless the guy who missed out on the other is still keen.

Condition: Unsmoked! It is truly hard to wrap my head around how a pipe like this has gone 87 years without being smoked! The bowl shows just a hint of forward cant and leans away from the sturdy round shank that is flat on the bottom making for a nice setter.

Didn't you just buy it or am I misreading your post?
