| Youngest daughter gave me 4 pipe rack with pipes for fathers day. Three Medicos, one with a Comoy stem, one an acorn shape that has a bent stem which I think may be a replacement, that pipe may actually be a churchwarden, a Medico Crest LEATHER WRAPPED bent Bulldog #77 on right upper shank flat The stem on this pipe has an embossed, or stamped, white shield almost looks like a caddilac logo. Anybody know if that is an original stem? One _KRONEBORG_ CASTLE ELSINORE straight, 766 stamped on rite shank. Realize these arn't valuable collectors to anyone but me cause they were 'gifted' by a daughter who spent a few years not speaking to me, well, not in language most of us use in public. She is 23 now, and we have a great relationship. All of these pipes have those acursed filters in them. Don't they make some kind of adapters for them so I can smoke them without the filter and not cause an airflow turbulance? As usual, been kind of longwinded. Any info, directions to site with info appreciated.

| You can smoke them without the filters, BdB. Just take them apart and clean them inside now and then.
Nice that your circle's unbroken

| Bruce,
It wouldn't matter what they are. It is just awesome that your daughter gave you a pipe rack with pipes. It doesn't get much better than that! _________________
