Petersons!

[Bengel]

Might be the angle and lighting, but I think this is a bit to dark for a smooth.

I forgot the B61 shape we corresponded about, great shape!

It is very over cast here today, it is honey colored like the current Deluxe rating. Peterson Deluxe Classic Natural (B10) P-Lip | Buy Peterson Tobacco Pipes at Smokingpipes.com - https://www.smokingpipes.com/pipes/new/peterson/moreinfo.cfm?product_id=472069
I acquired it for $80 on eBay a few years ago, it has nice birds eye.

In that case that is something I would buy in a heartbeat!

If people want to label me, that's fine.

I couldn't sleep and was exceedingly bored last night so I decided to catalogue my Petersons.

(I can't find three of them currently, but I'm sure they are just lost in boxes from the move; missing two SPD's and a racing green)

 

[HawkeyeLinus]

I fell prey to a solicitation and have a "junior" on the way, lol.

 

[Pete-Sav]

Some of you may know I primarily smoke bulldogs. Thinking about picking up a straight Billiard.

Any of my fellow Pete geeks have thoughts or opinions on the 107 or x105?

I've got an Aran 107 and an Army mount 107. Both smoke any Vaper I throw at them superbly!

 

[WildTurkeySurprise]

I have four, which is the most I own of any single brand:
Aran B10
Aran 105
System Ebony 306
Carroll of Carrollton

They‘re all less than two years old, and despite some folks’ criticism of newer Petersons, I love all of mine. Great pipes!

Put this in a different thread, but these two are on their first voyage today. Original SH I've had awhile and the "Junior Watson" that arrived recently - I'd been looking seriously at a Watson but already have full sized pipes in the SH and was resisting and kind of over it, then came the email from SP and there you are, lol.

 

[Jimmy_Jack]

I have my first Peterso lb on the way. Didn’t know about drilling/hole issues. Hopefully mine is good to go.

Worked through this entire thread and at the end I moved the sandblasted straight pot with the vulcanite p lip from my SP wishlist to my cart and pulled the trigger.

Not a lot of talk about the jr.'s but I got my Baskerville jr this week and love the size. Really glad I ordered it. Really cool and only 85 made out of supposedly old strummels. Nice pic. Enjoy.

I ended up pulling the trigger on several estate billiards. A 15, a 106 & a 107. They should all be here this week. Looking forward to changing up my game just a little bit.

A restored circa 1980s 312. One on my “ new” faves I am enjoying from my the old man. I definitely appreciate the “taste” of my tobacco in this baby and I wouldnt hestitate to pop for another. And if you can’t appreciate the Grateful Dead you may have been smoking more brown leaf than green.

So, after exploring straight billiards with a few of y'all, I received the 107 Dublin Filter Plip today alongside a Donegal Rocky 120 and the new Peterson Patent Pipes catalogue book from Mark Irwin.

I can say, I'm really impressed with the 107. I'm going to smoke it this afternoon. I'm looking forward to getting the other two billiards later this week, but I'm already into this 107. ?

Is that the "chubby" billiard you were discussing recently as far as shape, or someone was?

That's really nice! Not that there's anything wrong with the other one, lol, I like the hue on the rusticateds (and if that's a blast, I like it as well).

FYI, both performed their duties well yesterday - that Calabash has some good capacity! I did go with "junior" second and broke down and tried some Dunhill Aperitif as a substitute for something sweet --- I kept getting some kind of clove or something note out of it (so I guess I taste a few things, haha) and it wasn't what I wanted with the coffee and Dove chocolates I was stuffing in my mouth, and the "mood" of the morning, etc. so dumped it right away and went back to the Boswell Honey Roast I had planned for that pipe yesterday and things were magically all right with the world. Once again, "crispy" was the good word of the day for the tobacco.

Yes, that's one of the chubby billiards we were discussing.

The 120 has a red hue to it. I picked them both up as estates from Smoking Pipes.

I'm waiting on a couple more straight billiards to come in from Reborn Pipes. I'll post pics when I get them.

I only have one Peterson and I love it!

That’s awesome you have a Peterson on the way! What shape number is it?
