A dandy little Grabow 81, and a mr. dobbs... there might be a dandy ashtray, HANGING pipe rack, and a cardboard orphan boy advertisement, too. woo-hoo!

Looks fine to me... but my standards may, in fact, be low... I see many happy hours of "putting things right" in your future.

nothing special for dinner, but baked a "toasted almond and anise loaf" quickbread from one of the old pillsbury cook-off recipe books for a bit of dessert. It's pretty swell.

fellers, I picked up a novelty the other day... a "Stahly" "Live Blade" safety razor... handle is beefy, almost like a flashlight... Just thought it looked like a nice, stout, safety razor. Well, whadya know, its an early "vibrating" razor... turn the base counter clock...

Posting some rather dusty looking pics of my 81s and 85s... Grabows always speak to me. Pretty sure these aren't that dusty, I somehow fat-fingered the flash or vantage point somehow. https://www.tapatalk.com/groups/drgrabows/download/file.php?id=4280 https://www.tapatalk.com/groups/drgrabows/downlo...

I probably have in the vicinity of 100+... They are some of my faves, and I did the grabow tour a coupla times when it was still going... I've been out for a few days, with the 'vid... will pull the camera and take some pics, but it'll take some rearranging... pipes are here there and everywhere, LOL.

Yup, ashtray is an old barbasol jar with a dandy ashtray attachment on top. Pretty snazzy... The cigar box was for "shopping" cigars... Think I'll display some pipes in it, too.

I suppose I'm somewhat of an oddball... My "favorite" is almost any aromatic cherry blend... The heavier on the cherry, the better. Perhaps I'm not all that sophisticated, LOL. Cult Blood Red Moon is the one that leaps to mind, but it has not been "lost to the currents of time" y...

Some "vintage" finds... Main one I was interested in was a Grabow Belvedere in this lot, but I paid reasonable prices for all the items... Grabow just needs the adjustomatic stem turned the right way... Although the "Shopping" cigar box was pretty nifty, too. https://www.tapatalk...
