    Tin Residue

    So…first time seeing this. It was gifted to me. Just jarred it and saw this. Is this okay? Smoked it once. It was good with good moisture.

    That old Estate flavor and smell

    I’ve been working on an old Mastercraft Billiard. Finally got it cleaned. Took SO MUCH PGA to get clean. I even have another pipe I completely reset and it still has that smell. I believe it’s in the shank.

    Arthur-Leonard, Ltd. Pipe Help

    Hey, everyone. It’s been a while! I have a new estate find. I cleaned it up, and I’m selling it to a colleague as a gift for her grandfather. She asked for some history. The problem is I can’t find any. Can anyone help? It has Arthur-Leonard, Ltd on the side. That’s all. I saw some info...

    Bourbon Flavoring

    I have some Peter Stokkebye Bullseye, and I’m going to spritz it with some bourbon. Off the cuff so we’ll see what happens.

    ISO Acrylic Churchwarden Stem Maker

    Hey, all! I have a Mr. Brog No 14 Churchwarden. Excellent pipe, but the stem is junk. I’m looking for someone that can make an acrylic (or anything, really) stem for me. I’d really like to get a red/brown swirl or some colored material. However, I’m lost on who can do it. Any suggestions?

    Brewster Pipe Question

    Hey, all! I picked up a Brewster pipe the other day. Cleaning it up and all. Looks good. However, the stem, which looks like a DGB adjustomatic bit, is a little crooked. May consider replacing it. Does anyone have any suggestions about replacing a stem with that screw bit?

    Dr. Grabow Color Duke

    Found one of these I’m going to try and get. Does anyone know the years these were made? I’m thinking some time in the 70s.

    My First Medico

    Picked up a Medico VFQ today. Appears to be quite old and used. In the process of cleaning it up. It even still had an old, extremely dirty filter in it. To be honest, I can’t find too much info on these pipes. The pipe says imported briar with the number 11 on the opposite side. I assume...

    Italian Basket Pipe

    Got a very nice basket pipe today from West End Cigars here in Central Arkansas. It smokes wonderfully! No flaws that I can see. All it has is an “Italy” stamp. I’ll put a couple pictures below. Who knows who the maker is, but does this style ring a bell or appear similar to something known? Thanks!

    Double Thumb???

    Hello everyone! I just picked up a new pipe and I’m trying to get some info. Curious as a general date and location. Some research said this was Italian, but I have no idea. It is a double thumb. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

    lion’s Head Dating

    Hey, folks! I’m brand new here. Just found this website and all these forms, and I’m excited. This may be and overdone question, but can someone possibly help me date this pipe? I just picked it up at an antique shop. Totally unsmoked. It says Lion’s Head in straight font. On the right, it says...
