Hello All,
I'm new to the site and pipe smoking forums in general. I live in southern Ontario not far from Toronto.
I've been interested in pipes for some time having acquired my first pipe which was actually my fathers (a Medico Select Briar Varsity) and I've been hooked ever since. Such a neat niche hobby and pass time so very different from cigars or cigarettes.
I was wondering about information on Brigham Pipes (a Canadian Company) as I've come across 3 old Canadian ones at a local antique shop. I am planning on restoring them and just starting into this side of the hobby. These are old Brig's (prior to their move to Italy) and I'm now learning about pipe restoration. Can anyone lend me some info such as ages, names of the models (ie algonquin) etc?
I found a Brigham one dot 114 Canadian Pat Pending with serial # (old script), a 210 and a 314 both stamped "made in Canada". All in great shape and needing only slight restorations. I'll post some pics when I can
Thanks in advance
Paul
