Almost half way through this bowl of D&R Penhooker Silver in an undated straight brush etched black Molina apple with a nickel band and a black tapered vulcanite stem. Community Coffee, neat, is my drink on this windy, chilly day. Got all my walking in.

That pipe looks awesome!Doing one of my favorite chores ... laundry. Why? It’s a great excuse to do nothing between loading and folding sessions.
After listening to a couple episodes of the old Suspense radio show, I’m playing reruns of the Pipesmagazine Radio Show podcasts ... specifically, whole string of Brian’s interviews with Mike and Mary McNiel of the former McClelland. This experience deserves revisiting one of few estate pipes I have in my collection.

I know little about this pipe. I don’t know the maker or the year it was made (I’ve only had it for the last fifteen or sixteen years of its long life). The ring is tarnished silver, the stem is orific at the button and made of amber. Right now, the bowl (which needs to be replaced someday) is loaded with Frog Morton Across the Pond.
It doesn’t get much better than this.

About half way through this bowl of Sutliff Cringle Flake (Holiday Edition 2020) in a black straight, grain etched family era (Post WW2) Four Dot Sasieni “Appleby” apple with a tapered black vulcanite stem.
You really post some great pipes, man!
I found it at an antique store in north Chicago; they didn’t know what they had. Either did the original owner, I suspect. This calabash was barely used by the time I got it. In the same visit, from the same kiosk, I also picked up a billiard churchwarden with an amber orific stem ... unsmoked!

Too dark for a picture, but trying some Velvan Plug for the first time, courtesy of @BROBS , in my hobby block meerschaum. Very nice smoke. A damn shame they quit making this one.
The Burley Flakes are some of my favorites.

Now smoking AcesFour’s VaBur in the third pipe I ever bought ($1.95), a 1974 smooth straight French briar Hadley apple with a black vulcanite tapered stem. This should get me to dinner time.
Good evening, gents. Just finishing up a bowl of Drama Reserve in a Stanwell No.11.
Early-mid 20th cent. A.O.C (Adolph Oppenheimer &Co.) / GLOBE BRAND / MADE IN FRANCE + Planta ORIGINAL BLACK VANILLA FLAKE:-
