Show Off Your Petersons Here!

Hey guys! Been a while since I’ve been on here drooling over everyone’s recent acquisitions! One of my favorite threads.
Here’s one of my recents that shows my weakness for a good sandblast. The “Milverton”. I have a couple from the Sherlock Holmes series, and appreciate their larger proportions and exaggerated lines. This is just a standard sandblast, not a PSB.
Some of the PSBs I’ve seen, across all the different lines, are really nice and worth the price. But when you come across a great blast in the standard lines it’s real treat!

Wow! If I were grading this would've definitely made the PSB grade. But I would've also probably thrown a bunch of the PSBs in the rusticated camp so maybe I'm not the best judge.

Sherlock Holmes Rathbone sandblasted!

Frankly my dear, I don't give a damn.

@mikethompson - hope you are understanding these “Gone With The Wind” references! Not picking on your Tara. And …. don’t ever buy a small child a pony!

Kapet 65. I think I read somewhere that this COM doesn't necessarily mean it is pre-republic so I'm not sure. Nice little pipe in any case.

It is PreReplublic. Otherwise it would say Made In the Republic Of Ireland.

Nice, thanks for letting me know!

Standard sandblast?

 

[Brew&Briar]

Ebay score this morning - hoping it arrives safe and sound and is in as good of shape as it looks. Maybe a single bowl has gone through it. There is a 1982 hallmark, but no shape number. Any thoughts on what shape this could be?
My guess is 312 or 317.

Lucky Dog ! I’ve wanted one for years and was too late the last time they made any. 317 maybe ?
In any event it’s beautiful!
You see another like that please let me know!
Congratulations on a beautiful pipe.

I've been on the lookout for one of those. Can't believe I missed it. Congrats!

Thanks! I have been hunting for a long time too. I was just getting ready to buy an Altinay meer, but this happened at the right time.

Most the meerschaum Pete's I see are very used.

This will be my first ever "estate" - but this looks like its maybe had 1 bowl through it and was very well kept for 40+ years.

I’d say that fate put that Pete in your hands and you’ll end up with a fantastic and rare pipe!

That's absolutely amazing. I'm as green as a Peterson pipe sock with envy. Lol

Estate, those are gross! Just send it my way

Man, really happy for you! It doesn’t have that yellowish color so I’m wondering if it’s a Golden Supreme or not.
