I have plent of great smoking pipes, so an LB, even a beatiful one, doesn't appeal that much to me. I don't need another pipe just to smoke. What I want is a piece to collect. Somthing that is unique and special. Even the the couple LB's I have are special, in that both were the last of their kind - i.e. you had no more stummels in this shape.<BR/><BR/>Its a fascinating dicotome really. because what it implies is that the most desirable, and perhaps the most profitable, pipes are those on the extremes. Interesting implications for the business model!Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03582102086919400047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17653383.post-8667331981890592082007-04-24T03:33:00.000-04:002007-04-24T03:33:00.000-04:00Hi Trever,I can't but agree with David: Your analy...Hi Trever,<BR/><BR/>I can't but agree with David: Your analysis is on spot.
