All of my friends who I only see in person at the Show. It’s been too long. Secondarily, aged tins of blends I like at decent prices and probably a pipe or two. I am always look at what Tom Eltang has brought both at the Danish Pipe Shop's table and at Smoking Pipes' table. I always look through the Savinellis at Laudisi's table, but they don’t bring many high grades to shows. ☹️ Unfortunately, I never seem to see anyone dealing in new Dunhills. Then I have my short list of favorite dealers and carvers to check out.
That said, other than enjoying fellowship with pipe friends old and new, I have nothing specific that I am looking for.

Wish I could join ya'll there. It'd be looking for tins of Aperitif honestly and would want to try some of the I.W. Reis blends if they place a booth.

Hope Springs Eternal that I will finally get offered a couple of pipes that I’ve been after for years! Just out of curiosity, which ones are you looking for? I'm always interested in which ones people are collecting. Thanks! |

LoL, I'm very open with my wants! I always looking for unique Castello's in the shapes I collect, any Epoca, large Dunhill Collectors, tampers, point of sale displays and paper, really anything marked Castello or Dunhill. I always tell new guys to ask around about what they're looking for at a show. We're a pretty small world, if one guy doesn't know he probably knows someone who does.
I have many people who keep an eye out for me and I for them. I got a call from a buddy yesterday who was giddy that he's got something the owner described to him as a unsmoked "special edition" Epoca on the way from a huge collection that I've gotten some rare gems from before. I'm excited to see what he has but but I'll probably be broke by noon Thursday as usual.  |

This is why I'd love to go to one of the USA pipe shows. I imagine that the first day of the show is done in a sprint, nailing down what offerings there are, deciding which ones to buy, etc… I bet Rogelio’s head will be on a swivel this time around. thebriarpatchforum.com/thread/3481/pipes-stolen-chicago-pipe-show |
