Need to clear some rack space for Grabows. Never smoked the bigger pipe and tried the Little "Crown once. Both are in fairly decent shape. The Bigger Dublin has a couple tooth impressions on the bottom and a few small nicks and scratches on the stem. Bowl is very nice. The little Crown has a couple of glaring fills but pretty nice otherwise. Stem has some light chatter. It is what I have heard called a convertible as the stinger can be unscrewed and a filter inserted in it place. As shown in pics the big pipe is not marked HLT.
Trade both for a Golden Duke in a shape I don't have.

Love those old stampings -- they sure got some class to them!!! I wish Dr. Grabow would come up with a more ornate and pleasant looking stamping. To me, they should really ADD something to the value and class of the pipe, rather than distract from it. Something that reaaly shows, "we care"!
Royaltons are another one of those "tangents" I have to be careful not to go hog wild on. I have an example or two, but I am NOT -- and I have to resist these as well -- going to collect a slew of Royaltons for my Dr. Grabow heritage collection. Like you, I need to save room on the racks for Dr. Grabows.
More interesting and nice looking pipes Ed! And even a "convertible"! Someone needs to snap these up! Thanks for showing them to us! --RJ-- |

Will trade these two for an older Golden Duke in decent shape. Looking to round out a 7 day set of GD's. Prefer smooth pipes -will consider any in a shape I don't have. I have small and large billiards,bent bulldog and an Author.
