Ripley's Believe It or Not!

Went to Ripley’s in Ocean City with my family today and saw some interesting pipe and tobacco related things amongst the shrunken heads, taxidermy gone wrong and various hoaxes.

Why in the hell would a lady, who wants to pipe, smoke that ugly ass Turkey claw pipe????
I'm sure she was a "hottie."

Who knows what was in vogue at the time (or even when it was made)? At one point, men wore high heels, pink and more makeup than a modern day OF model... so, maybe a lady of X era would have thought that to be a sophisticated, elegant pipe?

Nothing there about everything being repurposed 507-C? Damn!

Well, I suppose you are right. There is no accounting for taste or trends.
I could actually see some gal smoking it today easier than I could in the Victorian era, or whenever it was used.
