A couple more restorations

[Silver]

The first one's a BBB Silver Grain billiard -



The second is a GBD London Made (no model name) billiard -



They both needed a lot of work on their stems (filling tooth impressions and small holes, sanding, filling, sanding). The stummels were sanded to eliminate dark areas, cleaning the rims, restaining and waxing.

Unfortunately, I didn't take any before pictures. I wasn't thinking.

I’m distracted by the solid pizza deals in the background

Here's one more. Its got before and after pics this time. It's a Dr. Grabow Tru-Grain, I think from the Chicago years/pre-1953. It's bigger and chunkier than most of the other Grabows I own.

Looks like a Dunhill LB . . . nice looking pipe.

Received a flyer in the mail on Saturday for modern era Grabows . . . no thanks.
