I'm a card carrying proletarian.

You and me both brother

Do those come with adapter?

They do and come to think of it, I am using it in this one. I bought a bunch of 9 to 6mm adapters for my 9mm pipes. I found the draw too open. Also allows me to use a 6mm balsa if the need arises.

Looking good sir! Your background makes me miss summer and horseshoes.

I keep looking at those alligators.

Went into town then over to the observatory to take care of some things and enjoyed a bowl of C&D Haunted Bookshop in a Peterson Irish Army Heritage 150 along the way. I needed that drive today.

I’m having my first ever bowl of Gaslight in my first ever pipe restoration…a pre-Republic Peterson Shamrock. I’m completely in love with both!

I keep looking at those alligators.

I looked at them for a long time and last anniversary my wife got me the 606. Glad she did and they look so much better in person.

First ever smoke of Peterson Deluxe Navy Rolls in a Georg Jensen bent brandy. Tin is around 2.5 years old and this is one of the smoother blends I've ever tried. Pretty fantastic stuff. This the first coin I've ever smoked and i dig it. I might have to go back to the shop I got it from and see if they have any more, as these were already 2 years old when I bought them.

Is that a pipe briar blank rough cut sitting in the background? ?

Ahhhh. Hump day. Busting out a sample of 2017 Dunbar in the Bullfrog Gumnut. Both courtesy of an upstanding fellow forum member. I’ve been getting nipped a little from some VA blends recently. older Dunbar has been way mellow but maybe not as flavorful?? I’ve got some work to do on my VA smoking

Some Macbaren Vanilla Roll Cake in a old repaired prince. ?

Smoking my new IMP meer (the one in the middle) - Mac Baren Virginia #1 ...I might be staying up past the typical kg.legat0 bedtime to smoke another bowl out of this thing...

 

[AppalachianPipe92]

Some HH Old Dark Fired with little light reading.

As far as I can gather the walnut stain started in the 1920s and appears to have been most popular during that decade and into the 1930s.
A few examples from said decade
