Peterson Sports' Era?

[kaan]

Hello guys. Today, a beloved friend gave me one of his pipes as a present. It is a Peterson Sports No:6
I couldn't find its production era. I believe it is a discontinued product isn't it? My friend said it is old but he too doesnt know it's age. Could you guys give me some info about it?

I have an interest in these pipes. I have two of these shapes and want to get the other 4 for my collection. Does anyone know if any retailers still carry or sell this line? I found both of mine on eBay but that has been a whole year of randomly searching. I have the prince and the pot shapes below.

I have no idea where to find them, but if I ever see them I’ll let you know

Thanks! I will keep the hunt going until I get them all!

Nose warmers are very popular in the Italian market, so I suggest you check out Italian pipe shops and Italian ebay.

Thanks for the tip! I found the newer versions overseas but not the Sport line. I will keep an eye out for them and hopefully run into a few of them over time.
