william demuth baseball pipe 1895

guys, i picked up this absolutely awesome baseball tobacco pipe on ebay. if you saw the piece it was full of dirt. after talking to some pipe people all i did was use a little soap and water and this thing looks brand new .. bowl is missing. but after a little hard work on the computer i finally found the patent info which i cannot believe.. the pipe from what i found out is carved from briar wood. Demuth was a german immigrant who came here in the 1860s penniless. opened his own shop and became a major pipe company. the kicker is the arkansas estate where the pipe came from were german immigrants from the 1870s. Now i can go ahead and have a pipe specialist put the exact bulb back on the pipe. if you saw this in person it is a work of art and worth every penny i paid. enjoy

That's very neat. Kind of goes with tobacco cards. Thanks for sharing!!

That is one sweet pipe. Be sure to show it with the bowl when you get it.

That's a great piece of baseball memorabilia on its own, irregardless of whether it goes with any type of cards. Congrats on a very nice pickup.

Excuse me if I offended anyone for making a suggestion. I will try to resist saying anything next time in order not to upset anyone's feelings.
