[QUOTE="lgoldberg, post: 594003, member: 5662"] I went to the local antique mall after work, mostly to just move my creaky body around a bit after a hard day of sitting. I'd been to this mall in the last couple of months, so I didn't really expect to find anything good. But today, I was moving slowly, and really peering into every locked case; that wasn't full of sports memorabilia or beanie babies, anyway. Taking my time made a big difference, because even with going slow, I almost missed this find. It was a wooden box, and surrounded by other things, so it wasn't anything that normally would have caught my eye, but the fact that I saw a couple of pipe stems sticking up out of it did! Got the guy to unlock the case for me, and spent a few supervised minutes pulling stems off and sizing it all up. Turned out the wooden box was a pipe rack and tobacco box. The lot was marked $25.00, but the vendor had an "everything's 25% off today" sign, hence $18.75. Even if it all looked like garbage, I wasn't going to miss out on the possibility of getting a good smoker on the cheap. Please let me know your thoughts. I'll post pics of each in its own reply below... [/QUOTE]
