Which pipe do you pine for, though for one reason or another you haven't been able to get it? Feel free to elaborate.

The Petersen I got in the Shannon airport that started this old journey. It's in a box in the barn attic that I can't get to.

Really don't miss not having a churchwarden over the many years. Can walk all over the house without risking breaking pipe or teeth with pipe in mouth. Seldom even do so with a long shank Canadian or similar

They're out there. Luckily I was given one by a member of the old Pipe Smokers Forum. Briar Life was his handle.

Spanu limone pipe he made a bunch of the cork ones but the lemon wood has been a challenge to find in my budget anyway. As I tell the wife all my pipes only cost twenty dollars.

There is only one that I’ve never been able to find again, but I’ve been looking for twenty five years while I’ve been collecting pipes. The difficult part is I can’t remember who made it and I’m not sure what the shape was called by the maker. I saw it at a Hill and Hill in ‘82 or ‘83, it was expensive and there was no way I could afford it at the time. The best that I can describe it is as is a Canadian, but about 1/4 bent and the bowl was more of an egg shape than traditional billiard. I really wanted that pipe. It was gone the next time I was there. I keep looking, but a while ago I got the feeling that if I am to ever get one like it, I would probably have to make it.

If I was still buying, one of those Spanu cork covered pipes. He ain't making any more of them as he's on the other side.
