I already posted about the C.P.F. pipe that I scored at a local antique shop. That same place had several other nice finds, including two unsmoked and very cool African meers, what I think is an Austrian meer with possibly an amber stem, and an Iwan Ries marked pipe that looks like a rebadged Savinelli Capri Root Briar to me...
As always, any info you can lend to these pipes would be awesome and helpful. I have not spent much time looking into these.
More from a great antique store score!

Wow.. super jealous. All three in the first pic are Kiko meers. The last one with the bowl half calcined is really cool.. lucky dog.

I paid $10 each for the meers, and $20 for the briar.

I love antique stores/shows.
I've picked up quite a few middle of the road pipes at them.
