Hand me Downs (pic heavy) Fathers Pipes

[canadianbiggame]

On my trip to Ontario to visit family my father gave me 5 pipes (pictures below) I dont know anything about these pipes other than he does not smoke them any more and gave them to me to enjoy. I tried to take pictures good enough for you guys to read the stamping on the side/bottoms. Any information on these pipes would be great.

Thanks Guys

I really Like this pipe but the stem is in really bad shape any ideas on how to fix this or where to get a new stem

There's no fixing that stem, send it to Mike Myers @ Walker Briar Works pipe repair to get a new stem, they run about $30-40 after the shipping is taken into account. http://www.walkerpiperepair.com/ I am sending him my Pete P-Lip right now to become a fishtail, he does very professional, excellent work and responds to emails the same day.

Mike Myers or Floyd Norwood can make a vulcanite replacement stem for you for $20-$25

That's very reasonable I will consider them as a very viable option.

Your very welcome! I'm loving that full bent pipe you got.

Looks like you got some nice ones! That Medico is the most unusual Medico I have seen! Even though it is considered a cheap drug store pipe I would send it out for a new stem. There are several good pipe repairmen out there,Walkers,Tim West,Norwoods--Google pipe repair.
Edit-that stem CAN be repaired,although most pipe repairmen out there will probably not want to mess with it. A little super glue and activated charcoal will make it useable again.

Its really hard to read but I think the stamp says "cityclub imported briar italy"

A little super glue and activated charcoal will make it useable again.

I was thinking something like that with a rubber on the end and I won't really notice it.

That first one is REALLY nice! I love the carving patterns on that bowl. That one is going to look really nice when its all cleaned up!

Very cool, I got in touch with my dad a couple of weeks ago to ask about some of his old pipes. I just love the thought of smoking my dads old pipes. The thought is a lot nicer than some random used pipes off of ebay.
Sadly though they are in storage, and he isnt sure when he will be able to grab them. At least I know sooner or later they will be coming my way.

If done correctly you won't need a rubber to hide the repair.
