I am a Mark Twain fan, and we share the same birthday, too, except I'm much younger.
An awesome friend gifted them to me, and I started cleaning them today.

You should do that!
I smoke a bowl (or more) of Orlik Golden Sliced every day - one of my favourite tobaccos.
Hope you enjoy it
Almost half way through this bowl of Watch City Queequeg’s Moby Dick Series in a slight bend smooth brown post WWII 1940s Sasieni Ivory 101 Westminster diplomat with a black vulcanite saddle stem. I'll end the day with this smoke.
Smoking another bowl of Oriental Silk today, in a Savinelli Tre this time.
I'm thinking about picking up a Rossi Sera, in some picture its finish looks quite similar to Tre Rusticated. Does anyone own both of them?

I have a few now and love all of them, they did some high end lines like the Senate range of which I have one but I’m getting more into the brand and seeking more. The one I’m restoring atm was smoked hard but it’s salvageable and should have a good few years in it yet. The youngest one I have was a steal and probably 50’s/60’s but it’s one of my favourites at the moment, great smoker and super light, good for walking the dog with.
Morning everyone, started the day finishing off a bowl of Whimsical from last night and now smoking Salty Dogs in a Kaywoodie Straight Grain bulldog. I wish I’d gotten some of this tobacco sooner, I’m loving it. 
What line is this from? It looks like a heritage or ebony stain with a deluxe system stem.
Peterson Aran Nickel Mounted (B10)~ I think last night I smoked with a gap, rather than fully closed.

Made me tear up a little seeing those. I remember as a teen when they arrived at the local B&M in New Orleans. I so wanted one but they were unaffordable for me at the time. Ive never seen one since.I am a Mark Twain fan, and we share the same birthday, too, except I'm much younger.

I believe that was late 87 early 88 ish. My parents are from St Louis and myself from New Orleans so the river and Twain are in my blood too. Thanks Jim that made my day seeing those and Ill be thinking about paddle-wheels and Huck Finn for the rest of it for certain.
B10’s are such an elegant shape.
Great looking Pete.
A morning breakfast cigar from Fuente followed by a bowl of Bayou Morning in a Savinelli 320 KS Standing Author. Happy Saturday!!!
Thanks, I agree ~ there is such variety in Peterson pipes, they are all I smoke.
HH Bold Kentucky in an Abe Herbaugh tomato with plateau and musk ox.
C&D Constellation in a Ceppo with some Papua New Guinea coffee on the side. Good morning to all.
Ah that makes sense. I’ve seen a number of guys smoke with a gap. Is there a reason for doing that?
