Your Cellar Size
Thanks cwpiperman! Yes, as you can tell, I'm quite an avid Tolkien fan and I love the slipcased hardback editions.

Collectors Series and Sets
I wanted to show off my new Vauen Auerland Almar pipe that I purchased from here in Australia the other day. The bowl is made of briar with a smooth finish, while the stem is made from Beech wood. It sports a short, acrylic mouthpiece at the tip. This is my first Lord OfT The Rings Auerland pipe...- Makembake
