Show Your Best Unknown Maker Pipes

I have one pipe left that i have no clue who the maker is, but has survived all the cullings over the years. It's just a great VA smoker, especially for flakes, feels great in the hand and has beautifual straight grain. The stem markings might give it away to a trained eye, but i am at a loss. I'd like to think perhaps the stamp has just been worn off from refinishing at one point. Who knows. Great pipe tho!




And here is one i sold recently that was also a great pipe, marked "PLF," but in all my research could never figure out who made it either.

Just found this one today in the bottom of a pipe bag and had forgotten all about it! Definitely goes here as there is no stamp. I do, however, remember that it was made of pear wood.

Recently acquired this pipe from an antiques shop, as you can see it has no markings but it's a lovely smoker and feels great to hold. I'm sure I remember seeing those marks on the rim associated with a particular pipemaker but I can't remember who or where I saw it. Anyone able to help?

This was my first pipe and is still my favorite among my 19 pipes. A friend inherited this and nine other Meers from his Dad and I helped him restore them. When we were done he gave me the pick of the litter. I passed up pipes with basket weave patterns, a claw & egg pipe and several other more ornate pipes. This one just spoke to me.
