What a great find Oz, a good read, love that it was presented by troops from my home state. Those are some gorgeous pipes that I'd love to give a home to but not too sure if SPC will put them up for sale.

Cheers

It will fetch it too. 4 pipes from the turn of the century in good condition and a part of one boxed set.

Wow, shouldn't be surprised at the price tag. They are 119 years old after all but that's a little bit out of my budget.

Cheers

When 119 years of age look as good I will not............

That the set remained intact is very encouraging. There may be other equally impressive sets floating about...
