Enjoyed a tasty golden delicious apple, and am smoking year 2020 Mac Baren Scottish Mixture in a straight, smooth brown 1960s Lane era Charatan Special 38 bulldog with a black vulcanite saddle stem.
Almost a third of the way through this bowl of Hearth & Home AJ’s Vaper in a pre-1952 Sutliff Falcon 372 (made by Comoy’s) smooth light brown straight bulldog with a tapered black vulcanite stem.
Enjoyed a light snack, and am smoking Sutliff Presbyterian in a straight dark brown and tan rusticated Peterson 2023 Saint Patrick’s Day 264 Canadian with an Irish flag colored ferrule and tapered black acrylic stem. Ice water and bergs is my drink.
Not far from finishing this bowl of D&R Penhooker in a 1990 straight dark brown Commemorative reproduction of the 1890 Peterson Patent System 12393 stack billiard with a silver band and a bowed black acrylic 32 AB long stem p-lip.
Finished work for the day, and this bowl of year 2020 D&R Raccoon’s Delight in my very reliable smooth straight post-1938 pre-Republic Peterson Sterling Canadian 263 with a sterling silver band and a tapered black vulcanite p-lip stem.
Now smoking year 2014 Edgeworth Ready Rubbed Match in a very much appreciated 1979 brown, slight bend grain etched flat front Stanwell Rego 969-48 (09) with a black vulcanite saddle stem. May end the day with this smoke if I get other stuff done in time.
Smoking a mixture of Haunted Bookshop and Carter Hall in a Dr. Grabow Regal. Drinking Maxwell House French Roast coffee. Looking forward to field work this morning.
Close to finishing this bowl of Watch City Queequeg’s Moby **** Series in a slight bend smooth brown post WWII 1940s Sasieni Ivory 101 Westminster diplomat with a black vulcanite saddle stem. Got everything done including feeding three ferals. I'll go to bed when this smoke is done.
Good Morning!
I fed the cats, dog, parrot, ducks, chickens, turkeys, and, rabbits. Now it's time for a break with Drucquer Casbah in a bent MM Apple Diplomat and cup of coffee.
Starting the morning with Prince Albert USA made (with coffee of course) in a newly acquired Yello-Bole author shape number 2213B marked KBB in a cloverleaf YELLO-BOLE HONEY CURED BRIAR. This pipe is amazingly light (an indication of briar and pipe making quality?), is in good condition, has a really pretty original stain. It has the original yellow bowl coating and the stinger is intact. It smokes great and stays cool. I compared this to my Kaywoodie 13B, and the shape is similar, but the shank on the 2213B is wider and more substantial, so I like it better. I'm really beginning to love these old USA made pipes, and appreciate BoB's giving input on the posts in other parts of the forum.Here's on the date range from Pipedia:
Pipes from 1933-1936 they were stamped "Honey Cured Briar"
Smoking a Poul Winslow bent apple with Stanwell vanilla and the last of my mornings coffee. We had some Thunderstorms last night. I woke to find numerous tree branches scattered on my property. It`s going to be another hot day here,so, they will have to wait!
Good morning gents. Having CS Choctaw in a Butz Choquin magnum bent brandy with a big mug of CR coffee. Heading to the ranch soon. Wife wants to go ride Teddy and I have to finish up the electric fence. Got insulator standoffs on 400 ft of corral fence yesterday. Today I have to run wire and install the charger. Gonna be a long hot busy day.
