Thank you, Gord! Been a great smoker from day one and continues to impress me. The birdeye on that side is really starting to show too, with use. The fawns are pretty husky and I think both might be baby bucks. On my way back up from the field on the tractor a buck with the largest rack I've seen on the property to date (almost 20 years) crossed in front of me. A good 6+ years I'd guess. These guys are never around when the season comes tho..Looked at this pipe and post, and travelled on. Then came back to it, several times, as this little sucker started to grow on me. And now . . . .![]()
YEAH!!
Liked the fawns, too, but they made me hungry and they're out of season. Nicely done pipe photo and tin composition, as well.![]()

A small addition to the post, the shade of the stain, polish and fit of the mouthpiece are reminiscent of Italian and American products from the 50-70s. Does anyone have any suggestions?Old pipe (it is not clear who the author is) only the inscription Real Briar.View attachment 400992
