I picked these up on ebay from the discription the Grabow has a screw in stem and is dicolored thet leaves me to believe it might be vulcanite

Dave...The price was right. The Starfire #65 should be a great pipe for you. I feel certain that it is vulcanite. Soft Scrub and several other methods will get the oxidation off.
The pot...orange dot? No markings?.....Must have been intended to be a Willard. If so it will have an "old timey" plastic bit.
The Willard may be a "throw away", but the Starfire is well worth the price....ted |

Good for you Dave. I had placed first bid on this pair, but didn't get a chance to get back to them on Friday. You'll enjoy that Starfire dublin.

Not a problem Dave. According to my wife, I've already exceeded my PAD fund for the month. I think I may need to link my paypal to a different and discreet (read: unknown to her) account.
