OK, friends, it is time I give up and ask for some help. I have been hunting Abbey of London pipes for at least seven years now. I know they are no longer in production (since 2005/2006) but unbelievably I have never found one for sale on the Internet anywhere. I would love to replace my lost bent sandblast bulldog of long ago but would buy any Abbey I could afford really at this point, in almost any condition. It's just a personal quest (read: obsession) now.
Note: I am aware that the brand name, Abbey, is now being used by southeast Asian outfit selling composite pipes; those are not the same.
Thanks for any possible help, direction, or ideas.
