Club Pipes: Generic Value Question
Say Tom Eltang, for example, agreed with the Outer Odense Pipe Puffers to make 10 essentially the same pipes. The shape is his, the process & the quality of work is as good/same as his signature pipes, it's marked the same but with the addition of "OOPP"...in short it's an excellent, legitimate... -
Dunhill Disparagers Proven Correct!

Unknown Dunhill Stamping
Edited because I was thinking of wrong pipe; D'oh! Try again: One of my favorite pipes is a '90s Dunhill Cumberland. The farthest right stamp is "11/10", with the 11 over a line then 10 below the line. This is not the date code which is where it belongs abutting the d in England. Anyone know... -
Recognize This Pipe?
Found it stashed away in a box along with a couple others where it had been for 15 years or so; nice surprise. Nomenclature unreadable. Obviously Danish. I have a vague/possible memory it might be a Pibe-Dan. Any thoughts appreciated. -
In Praise of Early Work
There's obviously much to be said for years of hard-won experience and skill. Most of the people considered masters earned that reputation over time. The (potential) downsides are a loss of enthusiasm, a dearth of new ideas/tendency to repeat yourself, a --perhaps not-conscious-- growing... -
Pipes by Country
I don't have a lot of pipes (18) relative to many of you, being a smoker as opposed to a collector, and today, just for the heck of it, I checked to see where they originated: 6 English 6 Danish 2 German 2 Canadian 1 American 1 Japanese Any of you guys make a point of acquiring pipes from... -
Um, Interesting Pipe, #2
In the last edition of "Um, Interesting Pipe" we had a specimen that was so silly and so ugly that it was pretty much universally derided as such by the pipe commentariat. This week's entry is a far more serious, far more accomplished, and far more expensive piece that I think will generate... -
Show Us Your Yello-Boles
Looking through this section of the forum, I noticed nobody had started a Yello-Bole thread. Seems a shame; when I was a kid the only pipe brands I had ever heard of were Kaywoodie and Yello-bole -- the Ford and Chevy of pipes. Although not yet a smoker, I was a Yello-bole man, as the honey...- Cloozoe

Um, Interesting Pipe
Lots of pipes are not my cup of joe but I don't disdain them or those to whom they appeal. But notwithstanding à chacun son goût, I found myself wondering about the appeal of this one: Not a cheap pipe, either; I can almost hear the SP description: "Whimsical yet elegant, the flowing lines... -
Conventional Wisdom
Frequently while perusing threads old and new on pipe boards, I come across the equivalents of: "Enjoying watching the sun come up as it orbits the earth" "Had been feeling kind of off, but the barber came by and gave me a good blood-letting and I'm doing ever so much better" I flinch a bit...- Cloozoe

A Question:
Among the seemingly thousands of artisinal pipe makers in the world, are there any who don't claim to have apprenticed with Tom Eltang? I wonder when poor Tom gets a chance to work. -
Core Four
Trying (and having) lots of different blends is a great part of the fun, but I was thinking of how many I would actually need to not feel deprived. I came up with four; two specific and two general: Haddo's 1792 Any one of a number of VaPers Any one of a number of straight Va flakes How about...- Cloozoe
