Many of you have asked about my Peterson System collection. I have a few other Pete’s but these are the systems. I believe I have every original shape but might be missing one or two. Need to polish some of them. My dream is to go to Dublin and pick out a gold spigot supreme in the Peterson shop. Tis a dream.

That is a beautiful collection. I’m glad you found what works for you and enjoy them. Great looking pipes. How many more Petersons do you have outside of these?

Very cool!! I truly miss my Pete Systems.
Back in the day (2007), a guy on the old forum sent me a bunch of pipes.
There were 5 Peterson System pipes with all different shapes.
At that time I smoked and loved them all.....but really preferred straight pipes.
Several years latter I fell into the lure of the super expensive handmade pipes and sold every one of the Peterson System pipes.
I regret selling every one of them.
Just to clarify......
The guy that gave the pipes to me (Trucker Chuck) sent a letter with the pipes telling me to smoke them or sell them to find my own way in the hobby.
Unfortunately he died shortly after gifting the pipes too me.

yep! 305! It was the shape my grandfather smoked. I want to get an older model as that's a newer one. Most of my systems are older.Ruffinogold wrote: ↑Wed Jul 12, 2023 3:09 pm Pete systems are killer and thats a wonderful lot you got there .
