You have a calabash, a couple of cased meerschaums, what appears to be a Savinelli Guibleo d'Oro lumberman (natural carve), a Hilson type leather clad. Couple of old gimmick pipes, etc. Great haul! Is 20 pipes right?
Can you list the nomenclature? I'm especially interested in the pipes at the top and sides (right and left) that have briar inserts on the stems. The pipe on the right (that I refer to) is the large freehand, part bent with the top of the pipe looking like it's mushrooming out. The one on the left is a tall, light angle, rusticated dublin (carved). I might be able to tell you something about many of the pipes but these two piques my curiosity in particular.
I really don't know all that I have here and probably need your help when I get to trying to figure them all out. I think total was 23, but I have a couple stashed that I may keep. If you don't mind, can you PM me your email and I'll pick your well knowledged brain when the time comes as I also picked up a bunch of Pre 64 Winchester Model 70 parts and stocks along with some Model 12 parts that I need to go through yet....
Like my father before me, I will work the land,
And like my brother before me, I took a rebel stand.
