Lazy Sunday morning so far. The Story Teller's Pipe The Holly King in the Peterson Iora 03 - managed a group shot yesterday, but just like little kids, hard to get a natural pose while enticing them to pose, lol. Happy week before Christmas!

Switched the stem from a Dracula?
Mac B Original Choice in a Scott Klein Tomato-cano sandblast.
Ken Byron’s Brown Flek in this Peterson Aran.
1792 in a Dunhill 35, a slightly long-shanked billiard. I have what I think of as a companion piece, a 36, also a root/bowling ball from the same decade, same length, that is a slightly short-shanked Liverpool. Gotta love it.
Reminds me of a scene in an old W. C. Field's movie where he's a carnival barker standing beside two yokels of average height wearing long fake beards: "Ladies and Gentlemen! Allow me to present...the world's shortest giant! And his brother, the world's tallest midget!

That’s the only trouble getting great old tins of tobacco, it hurts when you know you’re down the last bit and never know if you’ll ever get to see it again. I’d be chain smoking SG Bracken Flake if it was still being made and to the same standard but I have one tin left after this jar is done so I take as much pleasure from it as possible.
Steamworks in the Marco Bacigalupi blasted Dublin (2 Anchors).
Writing about Bracken has driven me to packing a bowl but WeeBay needs a walk and this isn’t a blend for windy lunting so I’ll smoke it when I return home, comfortable, warm and with a glass of Scotch.
Having a flake of MB HH Burley Flake in a #30 Mchaffey this morning with coffee, black like my soul 
Players Mild Navy Cut from the mid 90s, in the Scarlatta 5 Crown bent billiard.
War Horse red in a La Rocca. This does not “Taste like shit!”. This slogan is false advertising and an argument for compelled speech. 
Rum twist in my James Upshall Executive. 
Union Square in the kk vergin
HH Old Dark Fired in a Ser Jacopo Maxima.
It’s absolutely on my top list of one of a kind grail pipes. I remember your build on that one. Still amazes me with the attention to detail, grain, shape and stem work. It’s a Ferrari to say the least.
Kramer’s Father Dempsey in a Becker Billiard.
Thank you! I've gotten a few of his pipes over the years and they all smoke great. Awesome family business makes it all the more special.
