My wife and I visited an antique mall today.
I came across a display case with some pipes. I was excited to discover out of the five pipes two of them were in very good shape and excellent finds!
Thayne Robertson was a Boise Idaho Tobacco store owner and paid Carver. Not too many people know about him. His pipes are becoming very rare. All of his pipes have House of Robertson engraved on them. I own one other Robertson pipe. I’m excited to clean this pipe up and smoke it.
The second pipe was a Savinelli Capri #515. This pipe is lite and feels great in the hand. I’m sure it will be a great smoker.
Although they have been used, it appears that they have not been abused. Both stems are in great shape and can be cleaned up. With a little cleaning and some TLC, I should have both these pipes ready to smoke in no time.
