Estates for sale

Estates for sale

Thanks for any help (and apologies for the double post):

I live in Denver and was formerly editor of Smokeshop Magazine in NYC in the 1980s.

I have several "estate" pipes, many never used, that I acquired new while with the magazine. I've been wanting to find good homes for them.
I'd be interested in an offer as I've not smoked in years. All are in excellent condition. Those that were smoked only had maybe a dozen or so bowls. Last time was >10 years ago.
I can provide photos.
They include:

Erik Nording signature pipe (one of the first, he "sold" it to me himself)
Ashton Soverign XXX (given to me directly by William Ashton Taylor)
Bjarne bulldog (obtained directly from the Danish designer himself)
Lykars of Denmark (freeform briar that was my personal pipe for years)
Ed's Handmade (two....unsmoked.....made for me by Ed Koplin Sr., founder of the Tinderbox chain; engraved with silver mounts at the shank; they are the pipes he made for Bing Crosby and for James Whitmore)
Connoisseur Pipe (freeform pipe by Ed Burak in Manhattan of the same name; this pipe was part of a modern art tour that went to Eastern Europe many years ago)
LePeltier clay pipe with handpainted woodduck. (lovely pipe)
5 meershaum pipes (two unsmoked minis, both "heads"; one ram head mini; one ram head made for me by the Turkish carvers (has a hole in stem, bite through); one larger "drum" unsmoked....all from the California Meershaum Pipe Co.....can't remember the old guy's name.)

I also have lovely stands for the pipes (individual and double-pipe).

and I have an autographed copy (1st edition) of The Christmas Pipe Book (Richard Carlton Hacker)

...

I'd appreciate to hear from you off list at dmigoya(at)denverpost.com
thanks!

How much are you asking for these pipes? They sound like they're high dollar, and being a Therapist...I don't make a lot of money (but I did manage to get 2 new BIGGER turbos for my Skyline...LOL).

If you guys are still interested, I emailed in directly... apparently he still has most of the pipes left.
