My collection posted
Today I’ve posted a virtual pipe show display of my Castello 84 collection. Follow the link in the navigation bar to see those pictures. I hope you enjoy seeing them as much as I enjoy smoking them. Unlike some collectors who have pristine, unsmoked works of art, I consider myself, first and foremost a pipe smoker. Do I collect pipes? I’m sure that could be said of me, however, the true pleasure in these great pieces of work is derived by filling one of them up with my favorite tobacco and setting a fire stick to it. Then and only then do I get the MOST from my pipes. Happy smoking.

All I can say is WOW! Amazing collection, and you are right, the more you look at them, the more intriuging they are. Am I gonna start buying all droopy pipes? Eh, probably not, but they are gorgeous.

Truly a beautiful collection, Mike. The shape is definitely one that is very complex and Castello makes the best! You have done a magnificent job of putting such an award winning collection together. Obviously, you go 110% in all that you do.
