Saved Two More Pipes

[FurCoat]

Stopped in at Pipes by George last week and picked out two more pipes to play with. George isn't really in the estate pipe restoration business so he has a box with an assortment of pipes that he let's me go through. I pick a couple from time to time just because I love bringing these old pipes back to life. The next two come from the same person that dropped off the Sasieni 4 dots I cleaned up recently. A lady came by about a month ago and dropped off her father's pipes because she couldn't bare to throw them out. So here they are and next time I'll do better with before pictures. The rims were caked up something awful. Enjoy.

I think so too.
It was probably never cleaned but it turned out nice.

Nice grab! Cleaning up an orphan pipe is always rewarding. SMS and Tinsky both make great pipes, congrats.

I agree. He is one of the most genuine people you could ever meet.

Me too. I have a few lined pipes and smoke decent. The Tinsky took me by surprise so I had to have it.

I love cleaning up old pipes. It takes me away from all of the problems in the world and makes me smile.
