It’s 1900, and thanks. It’s actually why I sold pipes I was going to sell, before I was actually ready. Lol
pipes like that rarely if ever come up for sale . Sometimes you have to strike when you have the opportunity.
I love how it’s got the original Haymarket address in the case. My 1910 has the 58
When I got married in 1972 my wife and I honeymooned at Disney World. They had a pipe shop on Main Street. I loved it. I don't remember the pipes they carried, just that they had some nice ones. Also, the shop had a wonderful sign post outside. Several years later when we came back with our young son, the shop was gone, a victim of PC Puritanism I'm sure.
Here’s an unsmoked set of 1901 Comoy Hallmarked Wagner’s. They were made for a Parlor in San Francisco
Those Loewe's and Comoy's are gorgeous.
I've added three to the pile and will take pictures when I find the time.
1. 1911 Unsmoked Delacour - The bowl is made from a section of burl. Beautifully knobby and textured. I've not seen anything quite like it.
2. 1938-40 Barling Niblick - Four of these have shown up in the last several years and I now own two of them, half the world's known survivors. The Niblick was the pre War name Barling gave to the few sandblasts they produced.
3. 1910 Barling Magnum - A huge bent billiard. Bowl is 3" high and pipe is 9" in length. It's also stamped Durandu, which is a very rare stamp for one of Barling's early dealers.

Very cool, I watched that Durandu and contemplated getting in, but I figured barling guys were going after it. Congrats on the Niblicks too!!
They are definitely going on pipedia. Crazy huh?
Here is sort of a special pipe to me. It’s a GBD straight grain pot hallmarked 1951, my dads birthyear. The grain is impressive. 
So the $15 “sun hill” arrived in the mail today. I’ll take some pics of it later this afternoon, but in the meantime, it is the exact same model and patent number as this pipe
