I just received my newest ebay win, a patent era Sasieni Four Dot Bowler in very good condition. It was difficult to tell from the listing photos and it didn't occur to me to ask the seller but the four "blue" dots appear white. I cannot tell if the stem is original to the pipe but I can't...

I didn't know where to put this post but I would be remiss not to share this with fellow pipe smokers. I received word yesterday that my lifelong friend, who was as close as a brother to me, Fred Alvarez passed away suddenly in his sleep at the too, too early age of 53. He leaves behind a...
