| Steve that is one serious Meer. I have admired Yanik's work for a long time. To pick up such a piece at that price is insane. Congratulations and know that I am very envious  . It very well may be the best deal I have ever heard of involving a pipe.  |

| Whether it is the best deal ever is a moot point, no doubt some bozo will try to rain on your parade by telling how he was paid to haul a box of pipes away and there were two of these among the 15 bamboo Dunhills, and 5 pounds of Balkan sobranie. But it was a hell of a deal, and it is a beauty to behold. Well done sir. well done. Al (in Canada) |
