The value of pipe #443 is n/a points.

Chris Shepherd offered this great specimen on eBay for a pretty high opening. But, luckily, the bidding was not spirited and I got it. It is a better example of the color/shape than the previous exemplar, and it is nice to have one for trade as well as this one in the collection. All good things must end and I have acquired an un-smoked example of this shape/color. This pipe has not been lit up more than a few times. The liner is very clean, almost new. The mouthpiece has only a few light tooth-marks and the paint is excellent. I doubt it stays on the Pipes for Sale page long. It didn't, Dennis Schwallie bought it soon after it was listed.
