2004 Peterson Pipe of the Year

 

[Levallois]

New meerschaum with amber stem

I am unsure as to age but I would guess late 19th to early 20th century. Great detail on the claw.

I paid for expedited shipping on my last order and it took over three weeks to get to me! Hope it reaches you soon

 

[Levallois]

Dang, I hope it doesn't take that long!

I just keyed in on your signature - I was loaned out by my company to the Arizona Dept of Transportation for 2 years as an senior archaeologist reviewing project reports. Doing mainly Historical Archaeology now as an an on-call PI. I see the N. Greene homestead was occupied 1770s? Our homesteads here are post-1864 - and the majority of those date to 1900 to 1950.

The Nathanael Greene's birthplace is also still standing and was built by my 10th great grandfather James Greene c. 1680

That is exquisitely beautiful!

That's fantastic that you are still in the same area after all this time!

And thank you very much, Bushman!

 

[Il Cappello]

In going through my parent's estate, I have found several vintage pipes. I never knew my father smoked pipes, although I do recall him rolling cigarettes when I was very very young, but he had quit by the time i was 5 I think. And that was 60 years ago. Anyway, I am looking for information on any of them if you guys can help. Like Sergeant Schultz, "I know nothing" about pipes. Well, almost nothing, I've read this thread so I have a start...

Here are the first two, meerschaums. The amber stem belongs with the case, the yellow stem was loose in a box. The tag in the case says "Genuine Meerschaum by Pioneer. Deluxe." and has a drawing of a horse-drawn covered wagon. There are no markings on either pipe.

 

[Il Cappello]

I am at a total loss on this one. All it says is Germany. Not sure if it's ivory or bone or what, but it is interesting. It's about 3 1/2 inches long overall.

 

[Il Cappello]

The larger top pipe is marked "All Briar Kaywoodie" with the number 95B.
the smaller lower pipe just says Imported Briar Kaywoodie

Top is a Winston English Style, Algerian Briar,
bottom one says Wally Frank Ltd., "Good-Will", Made in England.

 

[Il Cappello]

Top pipe says "John Cotton" and imported briar in script on the other side.
Bottom one is marked "English Pipe Shop", has the number 69 on the other side, and says "Aged Imported Briar" on the bottom.

Top pipe is marked on the bottom: The Everyman London Pipe, Made in London, England.
Bottom pipe is marked with the number 530, has three letter Bs in a diamond shape, above the words Own Make, and then it looks like it is marked "THORNEYCROFT, London, England". But the Croft part is difficult to read.

 

[Il Cappello]

Three pictures worth 3,000 words?

 

[Il Cappello]

I guess one of these would be used for crappy tobacco!
The other one is difficult to read, but on the bottom it looks like it says Tesque Cherry, France.

 

[Il Cappello]

And lastly, some tools. a camera-shaped lighter, a pipe cover, a british buttner, and I guess a tobacco pouch?
