Restored Another Estate Cob
Picked this up in an ebay lot. Cleaned it up and removed the burned out bottom. Selected some new stock and secured, trimmed and sanded. All finished, getting ready for some Walnut and a light from my homemade Zippo pipe lighter. I replaced the original Zippo hinge with a homemade...- wildcat

Missouri Meerschaum estate dating
Does anyone know of a website or book that dates cobs? I have one I've restored and have been smoking and another I'm working on today and I'm just curious. Not value $$ curious, just curious about the history and history in general. -
Christmas treats!
Ben a while since I posted here... been lurking tho. Long story short, I had an odd?? run in with an interweb troll and just decided to lay low for a bit. A bit turned out to drag on too long. Problem seems to have gone away now, so here I am if you'll have me. That said, I treated myself to a...- wildcat

Last post function under freshness
I am a knucklehead. As such I have learned that I am not alone in my knucleheadedness. So for for fellow KHs, did you know that if you click the time stamp to the right of the last posters name on the list under "freshness"it takes you to the last posted post? Well I didn't and found out by...- wildcat

Pocket Tins question
Picked up several Velvet pocket tins on Ebay. They have barcodes on the side. From what I can find, barcodes first hit products in 1974. Here's the question: When did Pinkerton/Velvet and or any other tobacco companies for that matter stop manufacturing and selling tobacco in pocket tins? Thx!!- wildcat

Call your dad...
I've been away from the forum for a few days, as I have been back home with my dad who has been suffering with cancer. He passed away peacefully on 3/7/12. My brother and I were with him. We got to talk about many things during the last few months and especially the last few days. I was able to...- wildcat

My Pipe Rack
Picked this up at an antique shop. $30.00. 7 pipes can rest bowl down and 7 pipes can hang stem down. All 3 small drawers have jars attached for storage. I use one for tobacco, one for matches and 1 for PAD/TAD money! The long drawer is nice to store stuff in. I don't think this was a commercial...- wildcat

John Middleton
I love Apple and Royal Comfort (wish they came in tubs!). I've tried CH, but the pouch I got was older than dirt and it now resides in a jar mixed with Paladin that I found too cough syrupy for my tastes. (Together this is not a bad smoke now) I'll try a pouch again as well as PA one day. Here's...- wildcat

My first estate fix: 4 hole Kaywoodie
Here (hopefully!) are some pics of a Kaywoodie I found at an antique shop in town. I actually left it behind and the doggone pipe wouldn't leave my head! I mean, all that tape (3 kinds:electrical, masking and scotch), what did it hide...? Finally the thought of just how much somebody must have... -
Smoker's Pride Black Cavendish
Smoker's Pride Black Cavendish Picked this up the other day after reading reviews of this "economy" tobacco. I was happy to learn it was a Lane product and the price was right. (15.99 on line/24.99 locally at CoJ's. Gotta love NY!) Very very mild smoking. Vanilla and nutty flavors/smells from...- wildcat

My first English tobacco
I decided it was time to try some English blends. I read some reviews and decided on Peter Stokkebye's English Luxury. I liked what I read and the bulk price of $3.99 an oz locally at Cup O Joes fit the bill. I brought along my little MM Pony as a tester and sat with the cigar smokers in the...- wildcat
