Couldn’t find a thread for this Pipe by Lee sub-brand, so here goes…
A decent little saddle stemmed Apple.

Because well, it had to be done. I don't have any, but I know @Briar Lee does! Let's see em everybody.

A Comoy or Stanwell by any other name is still a Comoy or Stanwell 
You’re lucky Pipes by Lee has only a couple of sub-brands

I’ve bought a Pipe Maker that’s in the mail, which I believe is a duplicate of this bent and carved Briarlee.
No, they weren’t a Star Grade Lee.
But they were a lot of pipe for one dollar.

In my huge stash of old pipes, I found an Illustrious model push stem Briarlee.
Who can say, at this date, if Lee decided something like, I need so many dollar pipes and had that many Briarlees made up, or it this Briarlee might have been a Star Grade except for a flaw?

No, Pipe by Lee is a totally different steed. I am not sure @chasingembers understands the difference.
I have two Briarlees. One is an Illustrious and the other is the Holy Grail of this brand, Stroller.
Are the Strollers really that rare? I have a half dozen or so I should post. What i’ve never seen is what’s pictured in my catalog—a Lee branded Stroller with stars.
It took me forever to find the Stroller. What I like about them is the efficiency of their size. They are the perfect walking pipe for taking a stroll. They are also nicely balanced. It would be interesting to find one with stars. I agree. I've thought about selling mine, but it is one that just won't make the full list because it is such a nice example. I am also thinking I'll keep my Illustrious as well. These may end up on the rack at my second home with my collection of mid range size Lees.
Small-bowled Illustrious churchwarden. It’s either NOS or restored perfectly.
I have a couple of these Briarlee Goodfellows…Peterson knockoff complete with imitation p-lip. They smoke well, but I’m not a p-lip fan so I gave this one to a guy who is.
I kind of regret selling my Illustrious. Those pipes are really nicely stained and shaped.
I read it as "Briarless" and thought it was a thread to post non-briars
At least it won’t see any steel wool
I feel bad that @telescopes forgot to pull the listing for his Illustrious, but I’m so glad I won the auction!
This pipe is just what I’ve been looking for in a briar-light, portable, classy, American.
It’s in fantastic condition, a quick sanitize with everclear and an oil rub has it pristine. It’s gonna see a lot of use.
The Doblone d’Oro is drying out a touch to go to work tomorrow, but I may have to step outside and christen it with a bowl of Devil’s Holiday before bed.
