November starts with some Watch City Deluxe Crumb Cut in a Nording Freehand. As I noticed my stock was low I re-upped this one just as I was finally nabbing some of that infamous Rouxgaroux yesterday. Can't wait until my delivery gets here!

I know, everything is really, it’s just a question of moderation
Some 1Q in the basket pipe while I take the dog for her morning walk.
Followed up with a bit more MB Navy Flake in the MM Dagner…

This morning Red Rapparee in a Altinay Meerschaum
Right now a bowl of Secret Santa Mystery Blend in my JEverett Lovat

Mine is very similar to yours but marked O 7 G with a small capital A underneath. I believe the meer lined All Briar were only made during ‘55 but I could be wrong on that point. They’re a beautiful pipe though and pretty rare.
Starting the day with some 2016 stoved Escudo in this 1969 Donegal Rocky, very smooth, very tasty and I want another bowl right after this one but it’s rationed due to limited quantity.
On another note I’m trying to summon the hutzpah to light up this Kaywoodie Matched Grain set I got recently. I have a bit of a problem firing up unsmoked pipes and it can take a while for me to make the leap. I also want to get a better set of pictures of them, the grain even matches inside the bowls and it seems like an act of desecration to smoke them. Silly I know but I’ll get to them eventually.

Sutliff No5 English in this Kaywoodie Centennial. The system in these Kaywoodie pipes means I have to adjust my cadence or it gurgles and hisses like spluttering steam engine. I’m a heavy puffer and it annoyed me at first but I’m getting used to it and it’s probably for the best.

I can relate to your struggle, but lean towards preserving them. I have unsmoked boxed sets of Longchamp and Pipes by Lee that I'm leaving as is—they're beautiful examples that have survived in pristine condition for over fifty years. My thinking is I have or can get similar models that are already smoked and can smoke those, and don't want to turn the sets into just some more used pipes.
Good morning. Uno in a Il DUCA partially sandblasted straight dublin on this foggy morning.

I love a Longchamp and have about eleven of them I think, including the Lizard and Alligator skin wraps. I’m still searching for a boxed set myself but all of mine were previously smoked. They’re mostly all reserved for VaPers as they handle that mix particularly well.
I might do like yourself and keep them pristine as I’m not exactly short on choices here
Love that blend, with I’d gotten more of it, a lot more.
Good day all! Starting with GLP Stonehenge Flake in a Savinelli Autograph straight grain Freehand with plateau rim and undercut saddle stem.
I just got home after walking the neighbours dog and I’m treating myself to some 2017 Frog Morton in this bent 1922 Masta. It’s a little early for me but I’m having some Cognac with it too, it’d be rude not to I recon.
