Was this the one from deadman?I had to have this Kapp-Royal 65 View attachment 310662View attachment 310663
That's an amazing find.While on a business trip I came across a cigar store. Lo and behold I found not one, but two Peterson 2021 POY unsmoked.So I bought them both. Lol. The stems are oxidzed, but not terribly.
Yeah like the 2017 POTYs that were sitting in that British shop and then all listed at once on eBay. I think there are still 3 up there but maybe 5 total were available.The number of unfound pipes that are out there in the wild is amazing to me. The ones sitting in shops, or the ones sitting in a box in someones cabinet long forgotten.
Haven't seen the 2017s, but there are still 2016s and 2018s around. I think English pipe smokers are a bit more staid than our US counterparts! Special edition or small batch tobaccos never seem to do very well here as far as I can tell.Yeah like the 2017 POTYs that were sitting in that British shop and then all listed at once on eBay.

The grain on it was spectacular. I was bidding for a bit but wasn't anywhere near the winning bid.Yessir

The whole gang was at the auction.Me too. Lol
That 4ab looks oddly familiar, you get that from a Canuck by any chance
That is amazing!!!Here's an 1896 Patent shape 18 that is almost finished - still need to touch up the rim. I figured I would have a stem that fit it, but was pleasantly surprised that my 1902 amber p-lip worked - not the perfect diameter and p-lips weren't patented until 1898, but it's still getting smoked this way for now.
I did. lolThat 4ab looks oddly familiar, you get that from a Canuck by any chance
Thanks. An expensive crap-shoot paid off. It still had Lakeland odor to it, so I might go with some old Condor plug today.That is amazing!!!
I did. lol
Pretty sure that Canadians smooth unsmoked natural Plateau is still availableSame Canadian Pete Geek who sold the nice smooth Plateau recently? That one was sure tempting.
