Just a little Sportsman 87 I got in this week.View attachment 307331

It has a great open draw, but I’m finding that the nice vulcanite fishtail would have been better if it were chamfered and taper-bored.
It does get wet quickly.View attachment 307332

Lovely pipe! Wish I didn’t pass it up when it was on sale. Are you going to chamfer it?

Most likely, I’ll need to get the proper tapered reamers. I know a guy, but he’s pretty busy
The Short Army lines’ stems sure spoil a guy quickly!

I don't think I've posted these here before. Three of my 69 shapes, an Aran, Christmas 2023 and a Donegal Rocky.

Got a nice haul of Petes off of a guy. Only the 1s has been lightly smoked. The old 309 is going off to a certain someone for a 4AB stem treatment.

You my friend have some serious Peterson Acquisition Disorder and I salute you.

These are for my shop. I really wanted to keep the green spigot, but alas I've given my discretionary pipe funds away to someone else.

Did a 60* chamfer this morning and just finished a full chamber of Windjammer.
It smoked markedly better for having done it.

First post on this forum.

Relatively new to pipe smoking so here’s my small collection of Petersons. I enjoy all of them but probably smoke the Ashford 69 most regularly when I’m reading.

POTY 2022 and 2023. Deluxe System XL5s.
Ashford 69, 87 and 606.

A couple months back I got a 2001 Peterson 68 with a horrid "dick-lip" that someone had tried to create with an incorrect bend and a forward oriented draft hole - I refused to smoke it as was.

The first 2 pics were all I really have showing how it began. The final ones are after rustiepyles did his magic on it. And yes, it's a fantastic little performer, beautiful, feels great in the hand. It's a keeper.

That's a particularly nice splattering of Peterson's, good show!
And welcome to the forum!

Classic Pyles.

Here are a couple of 1897 Peterson cheroots I picked up a few years ago, along with their case that originally had a pipe. Interestingly, one is a p-lip (smaller one on right) but has the 1897 hallmark. So these must have been put together in 1898 when the p-lip was introduced, but with 1897 bands.

 

[Revnatorade C.P.G.]

Picked up these unsmoked beauties from @AroEnglish, POTY 2022 and 125th Aniv RUA. Now I've got enough Twains to fill up my five day rack. And this beautiful William Butler Yeats pipe finally arrived from Northern Ireland.

 

[Revnatorade C.P.G.]

Finally got this pipe cleaned up. I had forgottten about it and found it in my box of restoration projects. The stem was a bright greenish yellow when I got it and the sterling band was almost black it was so tarnished. Now she's looking good and is ready to smoke

So here's a question. What was your first Pete and when did you buy it it? Mine was an Aran 03 I bought in the Peterson Dublin shop November 18th 2023.

Mine was a silver band 302 I bought in the Dublin shop in 1988.
The next year I bought a low-end 314 in a drugstore in Derry.

Deluxe 9s hallmarked 1976 which I got it in late 2022.

Any photos of that 302?
