That guy is an idiot.
Every time I Google "cartoon mouse," I get Disney's Micky Mouse. That doesn't make it public domain.

Just glad the guy removed his name. but it's unfortunate that this thread drove so many to go check out his listing.
Well I figure they’ll soon forget the seller… or not.

That the person had the gall to double down when called out with his “public domain” nonsense… incredible.

There are plenty of pipe refurbishing bozos that have come into the hobby in the past several years. Which is unfortunate, since plenty of nice old used pipes are being destroyed by hamfisted amateurs.

It didn't even look like a pipe you would smoke Jim!
You are absolutely correct. Not my style at all.

I was given something kind of similar from a good friend, but only because it was one promoted and has Bing Crosby's name on it. Since I'm a Crosby fan, he gave it to me, but I haven't smoked it because it's not my thing. I am glad to have it just the same.
