Hi Chaps,
I could use some input regarding a Peterson Pipe that I have and will soon be offering for sale. It is a little bit of a strange one however. I purchased this whilst on holiday in 2006 at Nat Sherman's Store in New York City. The Sales Person said that it was a Pipe of The Year. Sadly, he was unable to locate the Box and was only able to offer me the usual Peterson Cloth Bag.
Time has passed and I have decided that there are two Pipes which I rarely smoke that might find favour with someone else. I have recently cleaned both and whilst fettling the Pete, I noticed that it is inscribed "Special Edition".
Now the really strange thing is,if you google Peterson Pipe of The Year 2008, there is my Pipe! http://www.pipesandcigars.com/pipeofyear.html The only difference appears to be that instead of the Celtic Design on the Silver Cap, Mine has Rings. The Celtic Design is on the Collar. Obviously the Cap bears all the Hallmarks. So, I rather wonder what my Pipe is? Mine is the Ebony Rusticated One.
Can anyone identify this one, or is it simply a "Special Edition" that was a precursor to the 2008 POTY? I will add photos once the Camera returns from an outing with my wife.
Thanks In Advance
Rob
